About this map

Red Bluff Reservoir dominates this West Texas landscape, formed by the impoundment of the Pecos River. The map captures the shoreline during the first decade of the 21st century, detailing the infrastructure around the Red Bluff Dam and the small settlement of Red Bluff. The reservoir's complex geography is marked by numerous indentations like Red Bluff Cove and landforms such as East West Bluff and Rocky Point.

Transport and access to the water's edge are defined by a network of rural roads, including Red Bluff Lake Rd and Oledry St, leading to localized points of interest like Robinson Arms Landing and the curiously named Alcatraz. Arid drainage patterns are visible through numerous ephemeral features like Skinner Draw, Hackberry Draw, and Tucker Draw, which feed into the central basin and Salt Creek during periods of rainfall.
