1971 Map of Cerro Castellan

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Big Bend National Park protects a landscape of striking geological formations and sparse desert water sources documented in this early 1970s field study. The area is dominated by the volcanic silhouette of Cerro Castellan and the iconic twin Mule Ear Peaks, which served as critical landmarks for travelers navigating the Chihuahuan Desert. Human presence is marked by unnamed Ruins near Tule Spring, hinting at the difficult ranching and subsistence history of the region before the park's establishment.
