Brockman Hills and the Coyote Hills rise from the desert floor in this 2013 survey of southwestern Grant County. The landscape is defined by the practicalities of ranching and infrastructure in an arid environment, where water management is centralized at sites like Brockman Tank, Coyote Tank, and Vista Tank. These vital points of catchment support the grazing lands that have long characterized the region's economy. Transportation is largely limited to industrial and agricultural corridors, including Pipeline Rd and the access routes to local holdings, notably Warren Ranch Rd and Hughes Ranch Rd. The drainage of Black Mountain Draw cuts through the northern sections, illustrating the natural runoff patterns that dictate the placement of local infrastructure and the naming of the surrounding high ground.
