2010 Map of Mountain Pass

About this map

Mulberry Canyon and the surrounding high ground of Taylor County define this landscape at the start of the 21st century. The map documents a rural Texas environment where small-scale water management and ranching are central to the geography, evidenced by features like the Billy Doan Reservoir and the Rhodes Ranch. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, from the heights of Bald Mountain and Riney Peak down to Horse Hollow. Drainages like Mulberry Creek and Elm Creek intersect the grid of county roads, with Butman Falls providing a specific point of interest along the southern watercourse. The presence of Butman Camp and scattered ranch infrastructure suggests a quiet, enduring land-use pattern focused on the gaps and passes through the central hills.
