About this map

Mt Locke dominates this high-altitude landscape in Jeff Davis County, surrounded by a complex network of canyons and high ridges. The terrain transitions from the prominent heights of Pine Peak and Brown Mtn down into the winding beds of Limpia Cr and Olds Cr. Water management is central to this arid region, evidenced by the numerous tanks scattered across the map, including Jones Tank, Elbow Tank, and Prude Tank.

Modern infrastructure for astronomical observation and ranching is visible through labels like Dark Sky Dr and Lunar Cir near the summit, while established landholdings like the Eppenauer Ranch anchor the local geography. The map also traces a series of recreational or access paths such as the Limpia Canyon Trl and Tejano Trl, providing detail on how these high-elevation valleys are navigated and utilized.
