1971 Map of Verhalen North

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Pecos Valley Southern railroad tracks run north-to-south through this arid stretch of Reeves County, serving a landscape defined by ranching, resource extraction, and early irrigation efforts. Small rail-stop settlements like Hoban, Collier, and Verhalen anchor the line, providing focal points for local history research in this West Texas territory. The terrain is marked by seasonal drainage patterns, most notably Toyah Creek and its tributary Cherry Creek, which cut through the level plains. Extensive Gravel Pits near Collier reveal the industrial utility of the land, while numerous wells and drill holes scattered across the survey indicate the persistent search for groundwater and minerals during the early 1970s. Fine red dashed lines throughout the map provide an unusually detailed look at fence lines and property divisions of the era.
