2019 Map of Cathedral Mountain

About this map

Cathedral Mtn anchors the high desert topography of this Brewster County landscape, where dramatic vertical relief defines the local character. This 2019 survey captures the drainage patterns and peaks that dominate the region south of Alpine. The complex network of seasonal watercourses is represented by Calamity Cr, which winds through the eastern portion of the sheet, and Goat Cr in the south. The mapping of Haleys Peak and Mcintyre Peak provides a clear view of the high-altitude landmarks that serve as vital reference points in this expansive terrain. For those interested in the relationship between natural landforms and road development, Cathedral Mountain Rd is shown as it provides access toward the namesake summit. The presence of Terry Mesa and the drainage at Deer Lick Draw further illustrate the distinct geomorphology of the Davis Mountains region.
