1983 Map of Paradise Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Housetop Mountain and Hat Mountain dominate the high ground of this West Texas landscape, where the boundary between Presidio Co and Brewster Co cuts across open ranch land. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent tablelands, including Gemelo Mesa and Whirlwind Mesa, which rise sharply above the expansive Paradise Valley. The map documents a sparsely settled region primarily shaped by ephemeral drainage networks like Hackberry Draw and Paradise Draw, which eventually feed toward Terlingua Creek in the southeast. While infrastructure is limited to occasional 4wd tracks and scattered water tanks, the naming of features like Cartwright Mesa suggests the enduring legacy of early ranching families in this arid environment during the late twentieth century.
