About: Trans-Pecos

An Entity of Type: List of geographical regions in Texas, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Trans-Pecos, as originally defined in 1887 by the Texas geologist Robert T. Hill, is the portion of Texas that lies west of the Pecos River. The term is considered synonymous with Far West Texas, a subdivision of West Texas. The Trans-Pecos is part of the Chihuahuan Desert, the largest desert in North America. It is the most mountainous and arid portion of the state, and most of its vast area (outside the city of El Paso) is sparsely populated. Among the nine counties in the region are the five largest counties by area in Texas and eight of the eleven largest in the state. The area is known for the natural environment of the Big Bend and the gorge of the Rio Grande, part of which has been designated a National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. With the notable exceptions of Big Bend Ranch

  • Trans-Pecos je geografický region Texasu. Termín Trans-Pecos byl poprvé definován v roce 1887 texaským geologem Robertem T. Hillem a definuje tu část Texasu, která leží západně od řeky Pecos. Oblast je také nazývána „Far West Texas“ (Daleký západní Texas), a je součástí západního Texasu (West Texas). Region Trans-Pecosu se nachází v poušti Chihuahua, nejhornatější a nejsušší části Texasu. Poušť sousedí s národními parky Texasu Big Bend a Guadalupe Mountains. (cs)
  • Le Trans-Pecos est une région située à l'ouest de l'État du Texas aux États-Unis. Elle est bordée à l'est par un affluent du Rio Grande, le Pecos. Elle est ainsi définie, par le géologue (en), comme étant la région du Texas, à l'ouest du Pecos. La région est également connue sous le nom de Far West Texas, une subdivision de l'ouest du Texas. La frontière avec le Mexique se trouve au sud de la région. Il s'agit d'une région de montagnes (Guadalupe Mountains) et de plateaux arides ou semi-arides. Le Trans-Pecos est connu pour le parc national de Big Bend et le désert de Chihuahua. (fr)
