2019 Map of Terlingua

About this map

Terlingua and Study Butte sit at the heart of this high-desert landscape in southern Brewster County. The map documents a transition from the preserved wilderness of Big Bend National Park to the historic mining and ranching areas further west. Near the center, the C Fulcher Ranch Airport and the network of roads like Ranch Rd 170 connect these isolated outposts. Distinctive terrain features such as the Reed Plateau, Cuesta Blanca, and the Rattlesnake Mountains define the local topography, while water sources like Cigar Spring and Lost Spring are critical markers in this arid environment.
