2022 Map of Adobe House Tank

About this map

Adobe House Tank sits at the center of this Hudspeth County landscape, characterized by the essential water management systems required for ranching in the high desert. The map illustrates a network of scattered water catchments, including Cinco De Mayo Tank, Llano Tank, and Deep Tank, which serve as vital landmarks across the arid terrain. These features, along with names like Tonto Tank and Roan Tank, highlight the local history of land use and the persistent search for reliable water sources in this region of Far West Texas. The drainage patterns of the area are defined by several prominent ephemeral waterways, most notably University Draw, Antelope Draw, and Mohawk Draw. These channels cut through the topography, reflecting the natural flow of seasonal runoff toward the south and east. Ranch Rd 2317 provides the primary infrastructure through the quadrangle, connecting these disparate water points and providing access to the remote ranchlands.
