Townsend Point is a 7,574-foot-elevation (2,309-meter) mountain summit in Brewster County, Texas, United States.
It ranks as the second-highest peak in Big Bend National Park, Brewster County, and the Chisos Mountains, but only the 19th-highest in Texas.
[5] Any scant precipitation runoff from the mountain's slopes drains into Fresno Creek and Juniper Draw which are both part of the Rio Grande watershed.
Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 3,250 feet (990 m) above Juniper Canyon in two miles (3.2 km).
The mountain's toponym was officially adopted in 1981 by the United States Board on Geographic Names to remember Everett Ewing Townsend (1871–1948) who was responsible for founding Big Bend National Park.
