1983 Map of Whirlwind Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Kokernot Mesa dominates the northwestern reaches of this Brewster County landscape, its steep escarpments giving way to the broad expanse of Green Valley to the south. This 1983 survey records a region defined by water management and resource extraction in a semi-arid environment, marked by numerous Tanks and multiple Drill Holes scattered across the basin. The drainage network is particularly prominent, centered on the winding path of Calamity Creek and the southern flow of Butcherknife Draw. Evidence of local industry and transport appears in the form of a Gravel Pit near the northern boundary and a network of Jeep Trails that provide access to the high ground of Bear Canyon. The namesake Whirlwind Spring serves as a vital point of interest along the western slopes, illustrating the relationship between the rugged geology and essential water sources.
