2010 Map of Mickey Draw West

About this map

Hitson Draw and Mickey Draw define the drainage patterns of this high-plains landscape in Hudspeth County, where early 21st-century ranching infrastructure remains the primary mark of human activity. The map reveals a network of remote corridors including Ranch Verde Rd and Foster Ranch Rd, which connect isolated outposts like the Love-Cass Ranch to the state highway system. A notable legacy of aviation history is preserved here in the form of CAA Beacon Number 6, a navigational landmark from the mid-20th-century Civil Aeronautics Authority airway system. The intersection of modern transportation at F M 1111 and these older ranching trails provides a clear look at how land use has persisted in this arid region, where seasonal watercourses like the draws dictate the placement of roads and homesteads.
