2013 Map of Voss

About this map

Voss occupies a high-plains landscape in Coleman County, defined by a network of drainage systems and modern water management. The Colorado River skirts the southwestern corner, while major tributaries like Mercer Cr and Panther Cr cut through the terrain. A series of federal land-management features, including the Soil Conservation Service Site 12 Reservoir and several numbered sister sites, illustrate the region's mid-to-late 20th-century focus on soil stabilization and flood control. Near the center of the sheet, the Hill Cem sits as a quiet historical marker among the rural roads. The western edge is dominated by the expansive O. H. Ivie Reservoir, showing how this portion of the Texas interior was reshaped by large-scale water projects that transformed the original creek beds into significant reservoirs.
