1973 Map of Collier Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Sierra Diablo dominates this Trans-Pecos landscape, where dramatic elevation changes define the boundary between Hudspeth and Culberson counties. The map records a series of prominent drainage systems including Cedar Draw, Dusty Draw, and Collier Draw, which reveal the erosional patterns across Collier Mesa. Human presence in this arid environment is sparsely marked by isolated infrastructure like the McAdoo Ranch and various water catchments such as Dusty Tank and Cedar Tank. A network of Jeep Trails provides the primary means of navigating the high desert floor and the steep approach to the Rim. The inclusion of an Indefinite Boundary and the jagged contours of Victorio Canyon highlight the complex topography that historically challenged surveyors and ranchers alike in this corner of the Far West.
