2016 Map of Panther Tank

About this map

Glass Mountains dominate the southwestern portion of this West Texas landscape, providing significant relief in an otherwise arid expanse. The terrain is defined by a series of drainages and seasonal water features that dictate the movement of ranching operations and travelers through this part of Pecos County. Notable among these are Nineteen Draw and Monument Draw, which cut through the landscape towards the northeast. The presence of Panther Tank serves as a critical point of interest, marking a localized water source essential for livestock in this high-desert environment. Further south, the map details the complex drainage patterns of Burnen Tower Draw, Cox Draw, and Carlos Draw, illustrating the natural conduits that manage the region's infrequent but heavy rainfall. This map effectively documents the geographic relationship between the highland mountain spurs and the lower desert draws that characterize the modern ranching territory.
