About this map

Davis Mountain Resort Cem sits at the northern edge of this high-altitude landscape, where the topography transitions from the dramatic peaks of Limpia Mtn and Blue Mtn into deep drainage systems. The map detail highlights an intricate network of specialized backcountry routes such as the Apache Mountain Trl, Six Shooter Gulch, and Whiskey Run Trl, suggesting a modern era of recreational access and ranching utility in this corner of Jeff Davis County.

Water management in this arid environment is clearly marked by scattered infrastructure like Santana Tank and Webster Tank, while natural watercourses including Limpia Creek and the Middle Fork Cienega Creek define the valley floors between summits. From the southern Bull Pasture Hills to the northern canyons, the sheet documents the complex ranching and resort boundaries that have come to define the modern Trans-Pecos highlands.
