2010 Map of Hueco Tanks

About this map

The eastern reaches of El Paso County near the Hueco Mountains reveal a grid of residential developments organized against a landscape defined by historic transit corridors and arid-land water management. This 2010 topographic record illustrates the layout of Hueco Mountain Estates, where long avenues like Carinha Ave and London Ave stretch across the desert floor. The map is particularly notable for tracing the legacy of 19th-century westward expansion, clearly marking the Old Butterfield Trl and the Overland Stage Rd. These historic routes intersect with modern access points like State Park Rd and Park Road 68. Scattered across the terrain, essential water features such as Ramons Tank, Hidden Tank, and Deer Tank point to the critical role of livestock and wildlife watering holes in this high-desert environment east of the city.
