1923 Map of Hess Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Glass Mountains dominate this West Texas landscape, where the high desert terrain of northern Brewster County is carved by Hess Canyon and Burnt House Canyon. Surveyed in the early 1920s, the map reveals a remote ranching economy defined by isolated homesteads and family-held lands. The presence of the Pecos Co Brewster Co line suggests the intersection of these two vast counties, while the Boundary Line to the east marks a significant regional division.
