2022 Map of Delaware Ranch

About this map

The Delaware Mountains of Culberson County define this high-desert landscape, where drainage patterns and vital water catchments dictate the movement of people and livestock. In this arid reach of West Texas, the naming of features such as Rock Water Hole and Saint John Tank underscores the primary importance of reliable water sources for ranching operations. The terrain is deeply incised by a series of significant canyons, including Maverick Canyon and Ed Ray Canyon, while broader drainage systems like Emory Draw and Paint Horse Draw channel intermittent flows across the rugged topography. Human infrastructure is minimal, represented largely by unpaved tracks like Casa De Piedras Rd and Looney Spur Rd, which connect isolated water tanks such as Scott House Tank and Segunda Tank.
