Dry Devils River and its network of ephemeral watercourses, such as Cauthorn Draw and Dunbar Draw, define this Edwards Plateau landscape during the late 1960s. This ranching territory in Sutton County shows a pattern of widely dispersed family-held lands, including the E Sawyer Ranch, Kelly Ranch, and Galbreath Ranch. The infrastructure of the era is marked by early petroleum exploration, with numerous Gas Wells scattered across the limestone hills. Local transportation and land use are centered around Cusenbury Draw, where Cusenbury Road and the Old Juno Road follow the natural topography. Geological features like Word Cave and a remote Landing Strip illustrate the isolation and specialized needs of these West Texas ranching operations.
