2019 Map of Boracho Peak

About this map

Boracho Peak rises above a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage draws and canyons across the Culberson Co Jeff Davis Co line. This arid terrain is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as Gap Mtn, Flat Mesa, and Bronc Mule Hill, reflecting a region where water sources like Joes Spring are critical focal points. The map reveals the sparse infrastructure of the Trans-Pecos, with only Moon RD and Taylor RD traversing the broad valleys. A complex system of ephemeral waterways, including Indian Waterhole Draw and Wreck Draw, illustrates the natural drainage patterns that have shaped the ranching and livestock history of this part of West Texas. Named features like Deadman Canyon and Rough Trap hint at the challenging geography faced by early travelers and residents in this remote corner of the state.
