About this map

Big Bend National Park dominates this Trans-Pecos landscape, centered on the high elevations of the Chisos Mountains and the distinctive Emory Peak. The Rio Grande carves the southern boundary of the map, winding through the sharp relief of Mesa de Anguila and Mariscal Mountain. Settlements like the mining community at Terlingua and the crossroads of Study Butte are anchored by essential services of the era, such as the Terlingua Post Office.
