1980 Map of Meyers Canyon NW

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Big Canyon dominates the landscape of this portion of Terrell County, carving a dramatic, winding path across the terrain. This 1980 survey, based on 1974 aerial photography, illustrates a remote ranching environment defined more by its natural topography than by permanent settlements. The lack of towns is replaced by a network of local transport, primarily the Jeep Trail routes that navigate the high ground and canyon floors to connect water sources and livestock infrastructure. Scattered landmarks such as the Tank symbols indicate essential water catchments for cattle in this arid West Texas environment. The map provides a clear picture of the land-use patterns in the Trans-Pecos region, where infrastructure is minimal and focused entirely on the demands of large-scale rangeland management.
