2010 Map of Mitchell Draw

About this map

Independence Creek flows across the northern reaches of this West Texas terrain, defining the local hydrology in a region characterized by prominent natural drainage systems. The landscape is marked by substantial geographic features such as Mitchell Draw and Seventeen Draw, which illustrate the seasonal water flow patterns through this section of Terrell County. Human infrastructure is limited but distinct, centered primarily on Ranch Rd 2400, which serves as the primary corridor through this sparsely populated territory. This 2010 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a precise view of the relationship between the ephemeral draws and the few maintained roadways in the rangeland south of the Pecos River.
