2016 Map of Collier Mesa

About this map

Collier Mesa dominates this West Texas landscape, marking a rugged elevation above the deep gashes of the Sierra Diablo range. The map reveals a land defined by its drainage patterns and verticality, where prominent features like Victorio Canyon and Little Victorio Canyon carve through the high plateaus. This 2016 survey documents the arid geography near the border of Hudspeth and Culberson Counties, where water management is evident in named structures like Cedar Tank and Dusty Tank. Human impact is sparse, limited primarily to Garren Rd and a network of ephemeral watercourses including Collier Draw and Seventeen Draw. The eastern edge is defined by the Diablo Rim, providing a clear view of the dramatic shift in topography that characterizes this part of the Trans-Pecos region.
