About this map

Dellahunt Draw serves as the central drainage feature of this arid West Texas landscape, cutting a wide path through the Trans-Pecos terrain of Culberson County. The area is characterized by its reliance on isolated water catchments, as evidenced by man-made features like Frosty Tank, Cedar Tank, and Five Line Tank. These vital water sources point to the region's ranching heritage, providing necessary hydration in a landscape otherwise dominated by dry arroyos and draws.

Transport through this isolated country is defined by the winding course of Dellahunt Rd, which provides the primary access across the northern portion of the quadrangle. Other notable drainage systems include Paint Horse Draw and Horse Well Draw to the northwest, while China Draw and Cottonwood Cr further illustrate the intricate network of seasonal waterways that have shaped the topography over time.
