1983 Map of Burro Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Southern Pacific tracks cut through the southwestern corner of this West Texas landscape, skirting the edge of the expansive Ryan Flat basin. The topography is defined by the county line between Jeff Davis and Presidio counties, where high ground like Buck Mountain gives way to a network of drainage systems. Numerous earthen tanks and the Thick Tank Well underscore the importance of water management in this arid cattle-country environment. Deep incisions such as Owls Nest Canyon and Juniper Draw feed into Burro Draw, illustrating the complex natural irrigation patterns that flow toward the flats. A series of remote routes, including a Jeep Trail, provide the only access across these high-desert divides and through Big Trestle Draw.
