About this map

Big Bend National Park defines this landscape in Brewster County, dominated by the high elevations of the Chisos Mountains. The survey details the high-altitude terrain of Emory Peak and the nearby Laguna Meadow, revealing a complex network of drainage systems such as Blue Cr and Fresno Cr. The southern portion of the map transitions into the starker elevations of the Sierra Quemada and features prominent landmarks like Elephant Tusk and Backbone Ridge. Travel through this portion of the park is marked by the Ross Maxwell Scenic Dr and the more primitive Juniper Canyon Rd. Remote water sources, vital for desert ecology and historical travel, are noted throughout, including Dodson Spring, Smoky Spring, and San Jacinto Spring.
