2019 Map of Diablo Canyon East

About this map

Arroyo Diablo carves through the arid landscape of western Texas, a defining drainage feature within the expansive Chihuahuan Desert. The terrain is characterized by the rugged elevations of the Finlay Mountains and the distinct channel of Gardner Draw, reflecting a classic Basin and Range topography. In this dry environment, water management is evident through a network of strategically placed catchments such as Old John Tank, West Tank, and Marr Tanks, which historically supported ranching operations in this part of Hudspeth County. Transportation in this remote sector is limited to unpaved routes like Mosley Rd and a isolated Airstrip, highlighting the area's sparse development and reliance on aviation for connectivity. Notable landmarks like Reese Lake and Flat Canyon further illustrate the diverse geological formations that define this corridor near the Mexican border.
