2010 Map of Gunsight Draw
USGS Topo · Published 2010About this map
Colorado River drainage patterns define this ranching landscape in Howard County, where the terrain is marked by essential water management features like Munger Tank, Deep Tank, and the curiously named Bombsight Tank. The map reveals a land structured by historical property use, where ephemeral waterways such as Rattlesnake Creek, Plum Creek, and Wildcat Creek feed into broader depressions like German Hollow. Prominent elevations including West Gunsight Mountain and East Gunsight Mountain overlook the eponymous Gunsight Draw, serving as natural landmarks for generations of locals. A network of rural routes, including Ranch Rd 1785 and FM 669, connects these remote points, illustrating the transport arteries of the early 21st-century West Texas cattle and oil country.
