1977 Map of Whiterock Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Whiterock Hills define this high-desert landscape in Hudspeth County, where survival in the late twentieth century remained tied to a sparse network of water improvements. The map illustrates a land organized around stock tanks and wells, including Little Borrego Tank, Red Rock Tank, and Veale Well. This system of catchment and extraction points suggests a ranching economy adapted to the arid West Texas climate, with specific livestock infrastructure like Silva Tank and Level Tank spaced across the terrain.
