1964 Map of Pyramid Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Pyramid Mountains dominate this high-desert terrain in Hidalgo County, defined by a network of drainage systems and isolated peaks. Pyramid Peak and Rimrock Mountain anchor the northern reaches, while the landscape to the south transitions into a series of draws, including Muir Draw and Bass Draw. Water management is the primary sign of human activity in this arid environment, evidenced by numerous tanks and wells named for local figures or landmarks, such as Jose Placencia Canyon and McWirter Canyon.
