Dimple Hills and Sugar Loaf Mtn define this section of Pecos County, where the high desert terrain is marked by essential water infrastructure and isolated ranching outposts. This 2012 survey illustrates a landscape where survival and industry are tied to features like Eighty Tank and the seasonal drainage of Eighty Tank Draw. The map records the sparse network of ranch roads, such as Cupolo Peak Rd and Longfellow Rd, which connect remote sites like League Ranch and the open expanses of W B Flats. The presence of named landmarks such as Gurley Windmill and Peters Windmill highlights the vital role of groundwater extraction in this arid environment, providing clear points of interest for those studying the history of West Texas land use and ranching genealogy.
