2022 Map of Buck Hill

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

The Chalk Mountains dominate the southern landscape of this Brewster County region, rising sharply above the surrounding desert floor. This 2022 survey captures a largely undeveloped stretch of West Texas characterized by significant elevation changes and ephemeral water features. Landmark summits like Buck Hill and Butcherknife Hill provide navigational anchors in an area defined by long-distance ranching routes, such as Nine Point Mesa Ranch Rd and Commanche Prairie Rd. Water management in this arid environment is evidenced by the presence of Broken Tank and drainage systems like Butcherknife Draw and Calamity Cr. The map illustrates the sparsely populated nature of the Big Bend country, where terrain features and named ranch roads serve as the primary indicators of human presence and land use.
