2010 Map of Juan Cordona Lake

About this map

The Pecos River meanders through the southern portion of this West Texas landscape, defining the hydrology of an arid region marked by industrial activity and irrigation efforts. The basin's characteristic topography is shaped by the presence of Juan Cordona Lake, a significant water feature in a landscape dominated by resource extraction and sparse transport networks. The 2010 survey illustrates the developed infrastructure surrounding the lake, including Lake Rd and S Exxon Rd, reflecting the area's ties to the energy sector. Further west, the Highline Canal and Sand Rd signal the historical and ongoing management of water resources in the Pecos County desert. This map records the intersection of natural waterways and the rigid grid of oil field access roads that have come to define this part of the Permian Basin.
