2016 Map of Mentone SW

About this map

McCarty Draw and Smith Draw cut across this arid West Texas landscape, illustrating the ephemeral drainage patterns typical of the Permian Basin region. This topographic study reveals a terrain defined more by its dry watercourses and remote road network than by permanent settlements. Industrial and ranching access is evidenced by the intersection of Co Rd 427 and Co Rd 426, while Ranch Rd 2119 provides a primary corridor through the southern reaches. In the eastern portion of the map, Halamicek Draw serves as a significant landmark in an area otherwise marked by subtle elevation shifts and the isolated path of Fence Line Rd. The map provides a high-resolution view of the local infrastructure used for land management and resource extraction during the mid-2010s.
