1973 Map of Figure Two Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Figure Two Ranch stands as the primary namesake for this arid region of West Texas, where the vast Salt Basin (Depression) dominates the landscape. Life in this desert environment is clearly defined by the search for water, evidenced by a network of named water sources including Sal Hepatica Well, Stevens Well, and Dry Bone Well. The topography transitions sharply from the low-lying basin floor to the western elevations cut by Black John Canyon, reflecting the harsh conditions of the Trans-Pecos. Industrial activity is minimal but present, noted by a localized Gravel Pit. The map captures a moment in the early 1970s when these isolated ranching outposts and strategic wells were the essential landmarks for navigation and survival in Culberson County.
