Mount Huffman (Texas)

Mount Huffman is a 6,373-foot-elevation (1,942-meter) summit in Brewster County, Texas, United States.

Mount Huffman is located in the Chisos Mountains and it ranks as the 16th-highest peak in Big Bend National Park.

[4] Topographic relief is modest as the summit rises 1,375 feet (419 m) above The Basin in 0.75 miles (1.21 km).

[5] Any scant precipitation runoff from the mountain's slopes drains southwest into Oak Creek and northeast into Green Gulch which are both part of the Rio Grande watershed.

The mountain's toponym was officially adopted in 1994 by the United States Board on Geographic Names to remember Calvin C. Huffman (1907–1980), legislator from Texas who, in 1941, introduced a bill to provide funds for acquisition of land to create Big Bend National Park.
