About this map

The Wildcat Mountains dominate the western landscape of this Trans-Pecos region, where the high desert terrain is defined by a complex network of seasonal drainages. Local landmarks such as Cliett Draw, Clark Place Draw, and Vega Draw suggest a history of ranching and land use tied to these intermittent water sources. The southern portion of the map is marked by the Pecos and Terrell County line, crossing through the prominent Toms Canyon and near the distinct peaks of Two Top Mtn.

Transportation in this arid territory is centered on the Old Downie Rd, which threads between the ridges and through Standifer Gap. The convergence of features like Downie Draw and Fortyone Draw illustrates how the natural topography has dictated movement and settlement patterns across these limestone uplands. This 2016 survey provides a precise look at the modern state of this remote ranching country, documenting both the ancient landforms and the established road systems that connect these isolated Texas counties.
