2019 Map of Black Mountains
USGS Topo · Published 2019About this map
The Black Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape of Hudspeth County, where topographic contours reveal a series of ridges and peaks defined by complex drainage systems. Water management is the primary signature of human activity in this arid region, characterized by a network of catchments and draws rather than permanent settlements. Named features such as McAdoo Tank and Black Mountain Tank point to the critical importance of localized water storage for ranching and wildlife in the Chihuahuan Desert.
