About this map

The Dimple Hills dominate this high-desert landscape in west Texas, where the terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and the dry drainage patterns that flow from them. The boundary between Pecos and Brewster counties bisects the region, cutting diagonally across the uplands. Water is the primary driver of names in this arid environment, evidenced by isolated resources like Eighty Tank and the long, winding path of the Eighty Tank Draw.

To the south, Sugar Loaf Mtn serves as a distinct topographical landmark overlooking the surrounding draws, including Red Mill Draw. The sparse road network, including Dimple Hill Rd and Cupolo Peak Rd, follows the natural contours of the land, providing access through the W B Flats and past the deep incisions of Big Canyon. This survey captures the remote character of the Trans-Pecos, where geography is marked by essential water sources and high-relief summits.
