1983 Map of Hood Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Water management in this arid stretch of Brewster County defines the landscape, where isolated sources are carefully tapped for ranching and livestock. Named landmarks like Hood Spring and various windmills, such as Kincaid Spring Windmill and Martin Windmill, provide the primary points of reference across a terrain shaped by seasonal drainages. These include Indian Creek to the north and the prominent Bacon Draw and Kincaid Creek further south. The map reflects a remote ranching economy dependent on subterranean water, evidenced by scattered Wells and a central Tank located near the foot of the Kincaid landform. Access is maintained through a network of an unnamed Jeep Trail, illustrating the challenges of navigating this interior portion of West Texas in the early 1980s.
