About this map

Wild Horse stands as the central point of reference in this arid Culberson County landscape, where the topography transitions from the high peaks of the Wild Horse range to the alluvial drainage of the Wild Horse Draw. The map illustrates a network of ranching roads that navigate the desert floor, including Brookshire Rd, Ramona Rd, and Sunsites Rd, which serve scattered operations such as the Wild Horse Ranch.

Tracing the path of historical travel, the Old Bankhead Hwy runs parallel to modern transit corridors, marking the enduring importance of this east-west passage. Seasonal watercourses like Hackberry Cr and Wild Horse Cr define the drainage patterns from the mountains down toward the flats, showing how the natural environment dictates the layout of regional infrastructure like Ranch Rd 2185 and Chain Rd.
