2010 Map of Sue Peaks

About this map

Sue Peaks and the arid highlands of Brewster County define this remote landscape at the turn of the 21st century. The terrain is a complex network of dry washes and high ridges, where drainage patterns like Heath Creek and Stillwell Creek carve through the limestone geology. This survey captures a pocket of the Trans-Pecos region largely untouched by dense development, anchored by significant topographical features such as Sierra Larga and the deep incisions of Wild Hog Canyon and Telephone Canyon. Primitive infrastructure is limited to the eastern edge of the quadrangle, where Stillwell Crossing Rd and FM 2627 Hwy provide the only established access points. Local landforms like Margaret Basin and Hubert Ridge reflect the traditional naming conventions of this sparsely populated desert frontier.
