2022 Map of Vieja Pass

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Sierra Vieja dominates this desert landscape where the boundary between Jeff Davis Co and Presidio Co cuts across the high mesas and deep canyons of the Trans-Pecos. This 2022 survey details a remote ranching environment characterized by seasonal water sources and significant topographical relief, from Star Mesa in the center to Soldier Mesa in the southwest. Historical access routes like A Miller Rd and Miller Ranch Rd provide transit across the eastern flats near Wild Horse Draw, while the interior remains defined by its natural hydrology. Named tanks and springs, including Joho Spring and the titular Vieja Spring, suggest the critical importance of water management in this arid terrain, supporting local ranching operations and wildlife through a network of catchments like Hawkeye Tank and Borracho Tank.
