About this map

Big Bend National Park defines this landscape of high desert peaks and volcanic formations in southern Brewster County. The survey highlights the complex terrain of the Chisos Mountains, featuring prominent landmarks such as the distinctive twin spires of Mule Ear Peaks and the volcanic plug of Cerro Castellan. These features, along with the deep cuts of Tuff Canyon and the massive basalt of Black Mesa, illustrate a geologically active environment where water sources like Tule Spring and Burro Spring were critical for early inhabitants and later park visitors.
