2019 Map of Beef Gap

About this map

Bullis Gap Range dominates the topography of this high desert region in Brewster County, marking a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and natural corridors. The movement through this terrain is dictated by features like Beef Gap, which provides a passage between the steep walls of Beef Canyon to the north and the expansive Reagan Canyon reaching toward the southern edge of the survey. Essential water sources for the cattle ranching history of the area are clearly identified, including the isolated Double Tank and Little Crenshaw Tank. The absence of dense road networks or settlements emphasizes the vast, undeveloped character of this West Texas environment during the early twenty-first century, where land use is primarily governed by natural drainage patterns and the management of remote pastoral resources.
