1983 Map of Pine Mountain East

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Pine Mountain dominates the southwestern quadrant of this West Texas landscape, providing a topographical anchor for the surrounding desert drainage systems. The map, based on 1970s aerial photography, captures a network of ephemeral water sources and stock tanks vital to ranching operations in Brewster County. Significant drainages like San Francisco Creek and Guayule Creek carve through the arid terrain, while names like Coffee Pot Canyon and Horseshoe Mesa suggest the long-standing vernacular of local cattlemen and early surveyors. Evidence of human presence is sparse but distinct, marked by a few 4wd tracks and the isolated Jones residence. This survey reflects the persistence of traditional land use in a region where water management, represented by numerous Tank labels, remains the primary concern for any inhabitant.
