2022 Map of Gettysburg Peak

About this map

Gettysburg Peak rises as a prominent landmark in this West Texas landscape, defined by the sharp escarpments of the Sierra Vieja. The terrain is characterized by a complex drainage system where Walker Cr and Quinn Cr carve through numerous canyons such as Soldier Canyon and Musgrave Canyon. This high-desert environment shows a reliance on scarce water sources, evidenced by the location of Maurita Spring, Newman Springs, and the Coal Mine Spring, the latter suggesting historical resource extraction in an otherwise remote livestock-grazing region. Flat-topped features like Quinn Mesa and Horseshoe Mesa provide distinctive topographical breaks above deep draws like Horseshoe Draw and Walnut Draw. Human activity is sparse, concentrated primarily along the Chillicote Ranch Rd which serves the isolated ranching operations of Presidio County.
