About this map

The Rio Grande defines the southwestern boundary of this West Texas landscape, marking the international border between the United States and Mexico in the early 1970s. The terrain is characterized by deep drainage systems like Hog Canyon and ephemeral water sources such as Sand Creek and Ash Spring. Human presence in this isolated Presidio County region is centered on the Bennett Ranch, which is supported by a remote Landing Strip and a network of primitive transportation including a Jeep Trail. This survey captures the administrative intersection of the Jeff Davis and Presidio county line as it traverses the high desert topography. The presence of several mapped Wells indicates the critical importance of water management for livestock and habitation in this arid borderland.
