1983 Map of Whirlwind Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Kokernot Mesa dominates the northwestern landscape of this Brewster County region, characterized by its sharp escarpments and the drainage of Bear Canyon. This arid West Texas terrain is defined by its intermittent water sources, where Whirlwind Spring and various unnamed Springs provide critical relief. The hydrology of the area flows through significant features like Calamity Creek and Butcherknife Draw, which traverse the broad expanse of Green Valley. Human activity is marked by resource extraction and livestock infrastructure, evidenced by a Gravel Pit in the northeast and numerous scattered Tanks and Wells. The presence of several Drill Holes suggests historical exploration of the subsurface geology, while State Highway 118 provides the primary transit corridor through this high-desert environment.
