2016 Map of Bee Cave Hollow

About this map

Short-Prong W Frio River carves a complex drainage network through this portion of Real County, defining a landscape dominated by deep canyons and significant karst features. The presence of numerous named water sources, including Prade Springs, Bee Cave Spring, Big Springs, and Chittim Springs, suggests a region where groundwater access was critical for ranching and early habitation. The distribution of family-named landmarks like Ranger Hollow, Anvil Hollow, and Buckalue Hollow indicates a long history of local land usage. Transportation is anchored by Ranch Rd 336 and the Prade Ranch Airport, which facilitates access to this remote terrain. The map also identifies geological and hydrologic points of interest such as Yellow Bluff Draw and Miller Springs, providing a detailed look at the rural character of the Texas Hill Country in the early 21st century.
