About this map

The N Fork Guadalupe River and its tributary Boneyard Draw define the topography of this Kerr County landscape. Water management is the primary human footprint here, as evidenced by a dense network of windmills including Stowers Corner Windmill, Sampson Windmill, and Bobcat Windmill across the range. These points, along with named ranching sites like the Benson Ranch, provide essential markers for local history and land-use studies in this portion of the Texas Hill Country.

Several distinct water features appear in the eastern half of the map, notably Bonnie Belle Lake and the Fish and Wildlife Springs. The presence of named landmarks such as Boneyard Waterhole and Turkey Lake suggests the historical importance of localized water sources for both livestock and native wildlife. The road network is sparse, centered on E Y O Ranch Rd and Fossler Ranch Rd W, reflecting the area's continued ranching character into the 21st century.
