2016 Map of Fort Davis

About this map

The Fort Davis National Historic Site and its surrounding mountain terrain define this 2016 survey of West Texas. As the seat of Jeff Davis County, Fort Davis is situated at the intersection of several significant drainages, including Limpia Cr and Chihuahua Cr. The map details the transition from the high desert floor to the prominent peaks of Sleeping Lion Mtn and Dolores Mtn. Notable local landmarks like the Pioneer Cem and Saint Joseph Cem provide specific points of interest for genealogists, while the complex network of mountain roads such as Prude Guest Ranch Rd and Skyline Dr highlights the area's development for tourism and ranching. The topographical data also captures the deep incisions of Limpia Canyon and Keesey Canyon, which channel seasonal water toward the Sproul Reservoir.
