About this map

Mitchell Mesa and Elephant Mtn dominate this West Texas landscape, where life revolves around scarce water sources and expansive cattle operations. The topography is defined by significant landmarks like Buck Hill and Butcherknife Hill, interspersed with drainages such as Calamity Creek and Walnut Draw. These watercourses provided the essential lifelines for early 20th-century ranching, as evidenced by the distribution of family holdings including the Kokernot Ranch and Wilsons Ranch.
