About this map

Sierra Blanca dominates the southern reaches of this West Texas landscape, a prominent peak surrounded by a network of local ranch and service roads. The desert terrain is defined by its water management systems, where named features such as Gunsight Tank, Cement Tank, and Pajard Tank mark critical collection points across the arid expanse. The northern portion is characterized by the Gunsight Hills, while the central area features distinctive summits including Little Blanca Mtn, Round Top, and Little Round Top.

A complex infrastructure of named tracks and loops, including The Boulevard, Waterwell Loop, and Maintenance Loop, suggests localized activity concentrated around the base of the mountains and throughout the Arroyo Balluco drainage. Notable landmarks like Mile High and the high points of Cliff Top and Dyke Top provide clear reference points for those navigating this high-altitude corner of Hudspeth County.
