2022 Map of Glass Mountain Ranch

About this map

The Glass Mountains dominate the topographic character of this portion of the Trans-Pecos, where the high ridges of the range descend toward the relatively level expanse of the W B Flats. This 2022 survey captures a transition in the West Texas landscape, showing the drainage of Belding Draw winding through the uplands before the terrain flattens out toward the southeast. The map clearly delineates the administrative boundary between Pecos County and Brewster County, which cuts diagonally across the mountain slopes. Settlement in this arid region remains sparse and ranch-focused, evidenced by the presence of Brooks Ranch Rd and the appropriately named Wagon Rd providing the primary access through the foothills. The contour patterns reveal the intricate network of draws and ridges that define the high desert environment of the Glass Mountain Ranch area.
