2010 Map of Yellow Hill

About this map

Lefthand Shutup and the Blue Range define the western reaches of this West Texas landscape, where dramatic topography is shaped by a complex network of ephemeral drainage systems. These arid watercourses, including Black Rock Draw and Saltgrass Draw, weave through a terrain punctuated by isolated summits such as Yellow Hill and Pinks Peak. The map details a sparse but deliberate network of transit, including Hen Egg Rd and Herman's Peak Rd, which navigate the elevation changes near Black Ridge. In the northeast corner, Terlingua Creek provides a significant hydrological marker. This 2010 survey reflects the remote character of Brewster County, documenting the specific named draws and peaks that serve as vital landmarks for navigation and land management in the high desert.
