2019 Map of Mitchell Canyon

About this map

Mitchell Canyon defines the drainage patterns of this Crockett County landscape, where deep erosional features carve through the West Texas plateau. The map details a network of dry washes and canyons, including the significant Howard Draw and Escondido Draw, which serve as primary conduits for seasonal runoff. This 2019 survey illustrates how modern infrastructure adapts to these natural constraints, with Howard Draw Rd and Pandale Rd navigating the high ground and canyon floors. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex as Government Draw and Government Canyon converge. The sparse road network, including Co Rd 405 and Co Rd 407, underscores the remote, ranching-oriented character of this region, providing a precise record of land use and topography in the early twenty-first century.
