About this map

Pelican Spring and Coyote Spring anchor this arid Reeves County landscape, where the survival of cattle and travelers once depended on these localized water sources. The terrain is defined by a network of ephemeral watercourses including Salt Draw, San Martine Draw, and Moody Draw, which channel seasonal runoff through the Trans-Pecos desert. Man-made interventions in the environment are visible through features like Jog Tank, a essential water catchment for ranching operations in this drought-prone region. Transportation is limited to a sparse grid of rural routes such as W Co Rd 225 and Co Rd 229, which connect isolated sections of the county. The presence of Bone Spring suggests the long-standing significance of reliable water points in a landscape where the desert floor gradually rises toward the foothills of West Texas.
