About this map

The Clear Fork Trinity River winds through the northern reaches of this landscape in Parker County, defining a region characterized by small-scale ranching and rural aviation. The settlement of Advance occupies a central position, while Adell sits to the south along Dry Cr. Local history is anchored by sites like the Rish Cem and evidence of former educational landmarks indicated by Oxford School Ln.

Two small airstrips, Arnett Landing Airport and Blo Airport, serve the community, reflecting the area's spread-out nature and the importance of private aviation in rural North Texas. Topographical interest is found at Slipdown Mtn and Bald Knob, rising above the network of creeks including Moreland Cr and Rock Cr. Several reservoirs, notably Reservoir Number One and Reservoir Number Two, manage the local watershed north of Advance.
