1974 Map of Coyanosa SW

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Hackberry Draw and Coyanosa Draw carve through the arid West Texas landscape, defining the topography of this Pecos County region in the mid-1970s. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by both cattle ranching and resource extraction, anchored by Mendel Ranch and the locality of Mendel. The presence of several family-named water sources, such as Lawerance Windmill, Ligon Windmill, and Beard Windmill, underscores the necessity of groundwater management in this environment. Industrial infrastructure is visible through a network of Gas Wells, Drill Holes, and a significant Pipeline crossing the southern portion of the sheet. For those interested in the infrastructure of the era, the map also identifies a Gaging Sta near the draw and a Roadside Park along the highway, offering a clear record of 20th-century rural Texas land use.
