1972 Map of Swayback Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Limpia Creek winds through the high desert canyons of Jeff Davis County, carving a path through the Davis Mountains as they appeared in the early 1970s. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, where Arkansas Mesa and Swayback Mountain rise above a complex network of dry washes and deep canyons like Frazier Canyon and McCutcheon Canyon. Human activity is sparse and centered on livestock and water management, visible in the Powell Ranch and various isolated features like the Gaging Sta and a Well located along the creek bed.
