2022 Map of Hovey NE

About this map

Upper Coyanosa Draw and Coyanosa Draw define the drainage patterns of this Pecos County landscape, where intermittent watercourses have carved distinct paths through the West Texas terrain. The map captures a transition point for several named draws and creeks, including the confluence of Musquiz Cr and Paisano Cr. Transportation in this sparsely populated area is centered on the Hovey Rd corridor and the historic alignment of the Old Alpine Hwy in the southeastern corner. These routes indicate the long-standing importance of this region as a pass for travelers moving between the ranchlands and the high desert. The presence of Burnt House Cr and Antelope Draw provides evidence of local naming conventions tied to specific landmarks and wildlife that have long characterized this part of the Trans-Pecos region.
