2012 Map of Two Mill Draw West

About this map

Old Christian Place sits within a high-desert landscape in Culberson County, where the topography is defined by seasonal watercourses and remote ranching infrastructure. Arid drainages such as Budweiser Draw, Paint Horse Draw, and Cottonwood Cr carve through the terrain, illustrating the importance of water management in this part of West Texas. The presence of the West Windmill further emphasizes the reliance on groundwater for sustaining the scattered homesteads and livestock operations in this territory. Transportation is limited to a sparse network of rural routes, including 7 L Rd and Nevel Rd, which connect the isolated sites across the vast flats. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the enduring character of the Trans-Pecos ranching frontier, where named landmarks often represent single family-held properties or critical water sources.
