About this map

The Wylie Mountains dominate the western horizon of this West Texas landscape, where the terrain is defined by a network of seasonal watercourses. Arid-land drainage systems like Michigan Draw, China Draw, and Bunton Draw carve paths across the high desert flats toward the southeast. The map illustrates the logistical challenges of ranching and industry in such a dry environment during the late 1970s, highlighting scattered water sources such as Sulphur Well and Javelina Tank. Economic activity is represented by more than just grazing; a Gravel Pit and a remote Drill Hole point to the extraction and exploration efforts common in the Trans-Pecos. The southern portion of the sheet also marks the administrative boundary between Culberson Co and Jeff Davis Co.
