2022 Map of Divide Well Draw

About this map

Divide Well Draw and its network of ephemeral watercourses define this high-desert region of Val Verde County, where the terrain is deeply etched by centuries of seasonal drainage. The landscape is characterized by a complex system of canyons and draws, such as Tardy Canyon, Oppenheimer Canyon, and Soto Canyon, all of which feed into larger arteries like Devils Draw and Live Oak Draw. This 2022 survey illustrates the topographical relief of the Edwards Plateau, where Rocky Point stands as a prominent landmark. Human activity is largely represented by the transit corridor of Ranch Rd 1024, which traverses the northern section of the map, and markers of resource extraction like Oil Well Canyon. The intricate contouring reveals a landscape of high ridges and narrow basins, providing a detailed look at the drainage patterns crucial to this arid Texas environment.
