1971 Map of Bone Spring NE

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Big Bend National Park extends into the southwestern corner of this survey, where the Santiago Mountains and Nine Point Draw define the topography of Brewster County. The landscape is marked by a complex network of ranching and water infrastructure, including Henderson Windmills, Shackleford Well, and Guy Lee Windmill, illustrating the critical role of groundwater in this arid environment. The presence of the Black Gap Wildlife Management Area underscores the region's managed wilderness character during the early 1970s. Arid drainage patterns are anchored by Maravillas Creek, which flows past features like Gooden Windmill. A remote Landing Strip near the creek highlights the logistical challenges and transportation methods necessary for navigating and maintaining this isolated reach of the West Texas desert.
