Remote cattle operations like Nielsen Ranch and Punta de Flecha Ranch anchor the terrain, connected by primitive tracks through the dunes. The map highlights the essential role of water management in this arid environment, featuring the Horseshoe Drainage Ditch and several named catchments including Trumbull Lake, Rat Lake, and Mallard Lake.
