2022 Map of Packsaddle Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Packsaddle Mtn and the broad flats of Comanche Prairie dominate this Brewster County landscape, revealing a remote high-desert environment defined by isolated peaks and seasonal watercourses. The map shows a network of named desert tracks and access roads, including Agua Fria Rd and Terlingua Ranch Rd, which connect scattered land holdings across the arid basin. Water remains the primary shaper of the terrain here, from the established Terlingua Creek to the critical Cheosa Waterhole in the north. Distinctive landmarks like Camels Hump and the high Taurus Mesa serve as natural beacons for navigation in a region where topography and sparse vegetation reveal the raw geology of the Trans-Pecos. This survey details the modern layout of the Terlingua Ranch area, highlighting how contemporary settlement patterns still follow the ancient paths dictated by the desert's limited water and prominent ridgelines.
