2010 Map of Deer Canyon

About this map

The Pecos River carves a winding path through this West Texas landscape, serving as the primary geographical focus. This area in Pecos County is defined by its industrial activity and stark drainage patterns, where the presence of the Noelke Oil Field and the Millard Oil Field indicate a terrain heavily utilized for petroleum extraction. These energy resources are connected by a network of functional transit routes, including River Rd and Texas Rock Rd. The topography is further shaped by several significant erosional features that channel toward the river valley, most notably Deer Canyon, Eagle Draw, and Sixmile Draw. These named draws and canyons illustrate the natural drainage systems that define the high desert plains between the river and the surrounding uplands.
