2016 Map of Devils Canyon

About this map

Narcisso sits at the southern edge of this West Texas landscape, serving as a primary point of reference in the transition from the rolling plains to the broken breaks of the Cottle County backcountry. The terrain is defined by a series of significant erosional features, most notably the deep relief of Devils Canyon and the prominent Red Hills. These features are carved by a network of seasonal watercourses, including Cow Hollow Cr, China Cr, and the winding path of Turkey Cr. In this arid environment, human activity and livestock management are evidenced by the presence of Turkey Tank, a critical water resource for the region. The map captures the intersection of natural topography and local transportation, showing the rural road network including Ranch Rd 1037 and several county routes that connect these remote ranchlands.
