2022 Map of Pecos East

About this map

Pecos serves as the focal point of this Trans-Pecos landscape, where the grid of the town site meets the winding course of the Pecos River. The map highlights the town's administrative role with the Reeves County Courthouse and records several local burial sites, including the Old Pecos Cem and Santa Rosa Cem. Across the river to the northeast, Barstow appears as a distinct settlement, its local history tied closely to the irrigation networks represented by the Barstow Canal, Main Line Canal, and several lateral systems like Lateral Number One. These man-made waterways illustrate a long history of water management in an arid region, supporting agricultural efforts away from the main river channel. Large natural features such as Mosquito Lake and the drainage of Toyah Cr further define the terrain between these two West Texas communities.
