About this map

Bloys Camp Meeting and its associated Grave sit at the intersection of high desert terrain and seasonal watercourses in the late 1970s. This survey of Jeff Davis County illustrates a landscape of isolation and strategic water management, where named features often revolve around reliable sources like Barrel Spring and the Blackeye Tank. The topography is defined by significant elevations, including Paradise Mountain and White Mountain, which loom over a network of canyons such as Wood Canyon and Merrill Canyon. Evidence of early 20th-century religious traditions is preserved at the camp meeting grounds, while the presence of a Landing Strip and various Prospects suggests the continued modern utility of this remote area. The drainage system of the North Fork Alamito Creek and South Fork Alamito Creek provides a clear view of the region's natural watershed in the Davis Mountains area.
