2016 Map of Boggy Draw

About this map

Helm Ranch Rd and Agua Calient Lodge Rd trace the sparse human footprint across this arid Jeff Davis County landscape. The terrain is defined by a series of drainage systems, including the central Boggy Draw and Bunton Draw, which converge near Lucky Tank. These water features, alongside Dinkins Tank and String Bean Tank, suggest the vital importance of water management in this high-desert ranching environment. To the northeast, the topography becomes more complex at Boggy Canyon, where elevation contours tighten significantly compared to the broad, sweeping valleys of Jones Draw and Ninemile Draw. This map preserves the 2016 arrangement of private ranch roads and named catchments that have long dictated the movement of livestock and people through the Trans-Pecos region.
