1982 Map of Clanton Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Coronado National Forest lands dominate the western portion of this topographic study, where the high terrain falls away into a complex network of arid drainages. The landscape is defined by its water management, evidenced by numerous man-made catchments like New Tank, South Tank, and Maddox Tank scattered across the higher elevations. These features, along with Patterson Tank and Cottonwood Tank, suggest a land utilized for ranching and livestock where natural permanent water is scarce. The geography is carved by seasonal watercourses, most notably Skeleton Canyon and Clanton Draw, which slice through the hills toward the Animas Creek valley. A distinct shift in the land occurs at Deer Flat, a rare level expanse amidst the rugged drainages of Whitmire Canyon and Dutchman Canyon, providing a clear view of how early land use was dictated by the harsh, dry environment of Hidalgo County.
