2016 Map of Cavett Lake

About this map

Alamo Arroyo and Camp Rice Arroyo wind through this arid Hudspeth County landscape, defining the drainage patterns of the Trans-Pecos region. The terrain is characterized by a series of water management features essential for ranching and conservation in this dry climate, including Phillip Tank, Caliche Tank, and Alamo Reservoir Number One. A larger catchment area is found at Cavett Lake, while the Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir indicates mid-20th-century federal efforts to manage runoff and prevent erosion. Remote transit in the area is facilitated by Mcguyers Roads and Mcguire Rd, which connect these isolated water sources and canyon lands. The geography reflects a sparse, utilitarian land use focused on water collection, centered around the prominent Alamo Canyon.
