1978 Map of Vieja Pass

About this map

Sierra Vieja dominates this West Texas landscape, forming a dramatic escarpment that separates high mesas from deep canyon drainages. In the late 1970s, the area remained a remote ranching frontier, centered on the Miller Ranch near the Jeff Davis and Presidio County line. Water is the primary driver of development here, with naming patterns following reliable water sources like Joho Spring, Vieja Spring, and various stock tanks such as Hawkeye Tank and Borracha Tank.
