2022 Map of Diamond Y Spring

About this map

Diamond Y Spring serves as the focal point of this arid West Texas landscape in Pecos County. The terrain is defined by the significant drainage patterns of the Diamond Y Draw, which cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle before intersecting with the eastward-flowing Leon Cr. Further north, the ephemeral waters of Courtney Cr traverse the high desert plains. This 2022 survey captures the modern road network and topographic contours of a region where water sources like the spring have historically dictated the movement of people and livestock through the Trans-Pecos region. The sparse distribution of named features highlights the isolated character of this high-elevation terrain.
