About this map

Tepee Butte rises as the central landmark of this high-desert ranching landscape in western Texas during the late 1970s. The region is defined by an intricate network of water management features, critical for sustaining life in this arid terrain. A series of catchment basins and water sources, such as Ventura Tank, Charco Tank, and Santiago Tank, are distributed across the land, connected by the seasonal drainages of Number 9 Draw and Antelope Draw. Modern infrastructure of the era is evident in the presence of a Pumping Sta and a Radio Tower, reflecting the technological adaptations required to manage remote Hudspeth County holdings. The prevalence of private tracks and isolated tanks suggests a landscape focused on cattle ranching, where every named water source like New Tank serves as a vital point of reference for land use and navigation.
