Simpson Springs Mountain and the surrounding high desert terrain of Brewster County are defined by a complex network of intermittent water sources and ranching infrastructure. This landscape, surveyed in the late 1970s and edited in 1983, centers on the massive forms of West Bourland Mountain and East Bourland Mountain. The importance of water in this arid environment is evident in the numerous named springs and wells, such as Sunshine Springs, Ridge Springs, and Hatch Well.
