The high-elevation desert landscape of Alpine anchor the northern edge of this 2019 survey, where the town’s residential grid meets the surrounding peaks and canyons. The topography is defined by prominent igneous formations such as Twin Sisters, Lizard Mtn, and Ranger Peak, which create a rugged backdrop for the city. Significant local history sites are found on the eastern outskirts, including Elm Grove Cem and Holy Angels Cem near the banks of Moss Creek. Water management in this arid environment is evident through features like Baylor Tank, Ranger Spring, and the various draws like Deer Lick Draw and L-H Draw. The map details the drainage patterns of Paisano Creek and McIntyre Creek, showing how these ephemeral waterways shape the canyons below Hancock Hill and Sierra La Rana.
