2012 Map of Echo Canyon

About this map

J D Ranch and Long X Ranch anchor this landscape of the Davis Mountains, where the livestock economy relies on a network of named water sources and windmills. The topography is defined by the significant cuts of Echo Canyon, Hawthicket Canyon, and Selman Canyon, providing natural corridors through the high desert terrain. Notable elevations such as Encantada Peak and Round Mtn overlook a sparse infrastructure of ranch roads like Bar C Ranch Rd and Tierra Kand Way. The distribution of features like Patterson Spring Windmill and Middle Rock House Tank highlights the critical role of water management for the scattered outposts and camps, including J N Camp and Ikins Ranch, that have historically sustained this remote corner of West Texas.
