2013 Map of Sixteenmile Draw West
USGS Topo · Published 2013About this map
Rio Penasco winds through the high desert of Chaves County, anchoring a landscape defined by seasonal watercourses and remote ranching infrastructure. This western reach of the Pecos Valley region is marked by significant topographical features such as Sixteenmile Draw, Catclaw Draw, and the rugged Cuevo Canyon. Local land use is evidenced by the Cauhape Ranch and the specialized Cauhape Teel Windmill, which reflect the persistence of livestock operations in this arid environment. Water management is a primary theme of the map, visible in the presence of Frenchman Lake and the Hope Retard Dam. A network of unpaved corridors, including Cauhape Ranch Rd and Sagebrush Valley Rd, provides the essential connectivity between these isolated homesteads and the larger drainage basins like Singer Lake Draw.
