2019 Map of Persimmon Gap

About this map

Big Bend National Park dominates the southern landscape of this Brewster County study, where the Santiago Mountains form a prominent spine through the high desert. This region serves as a critical northern entry point for the park, centered on the natural passage of Persimmon Gap. The map details the drainage network essential to this arid environment, including Javelina Draw and Bone Spring Draw, alongside isolated man-made features like Carney Tank. Transportation is defined by Main Park Rd and the junction of Chalk Draw Ranch Rd, which together provide access to this remote corner of West Texas. The presence of the Persimmon Gap Ranch Airport highlights the logistical challenges and ranching history that characterize the area's modern era.
