2012 Map of McKinney Mountain

About this map

McKinney Mountain and Church Mountain anchor this landscape in Presidio County, where the topography is defined by high peaks and deep drainage basins. The map reveals a complex network of intermittent watercourses, most notably Crystal Creek, which winds southward through the center of the sheet towards Paradise Valley. In the southwest, Dogie Creek flows past the base of Red Hill, illustrating the typical desert wash patterns of the Big Bend region. This 2012 digital survey by the U.S. Geological Survey shows a largely unpopulated area with limited road access, emphasizing the isolation of landmarks like Turney Peak in the northeast. The distribution of these named summits and valleys provides a clear framework for understanding the physical geography of this remote section of West Texas.
