2016 Map of Manzanillo Canyon

About this map

Manzanillo Canyon defines the central topography of this Presidio County landscape, where deep drainage systems carve through the high desert of West Texas. The waterway of Terneros Creek winds across the midsection of the sheet, providing a primary drainage feature for the surrounding uplands. To the northwest, the elevation rises toward the Black Hills, a significant topographical landmark in an area otherwise characterized by intricate contouring and desert canyons. This 2016 survey shows a territory largely defined by its natural landforms, with very little human-made infrastructure present beyond the Main Rd cutting across the southwestern corner. The map captures a moment of modern land management in this remote section of the state, documenting the exact contours of the canyons and creeks as they stood in the early 21st century.
