About this map

Broome stands at the southern edge of this West Texas landscape, where the N Concho River cuts through the arid terrain of the Edwards Plateau. The settlement sits near the confluence of several seasonal drainage systems, most notably China Draw, which shapes the local topography south of the Sterling Co Coke Co boundary line. This 2016 survey illustrates a sparsely populated region defined by large-scale ranching and land management, with a network of rural routes such as China Valley Ln and Walnut Rd providing access to interior pasturelands.

To the northeast, the terrain rises toward Shelving Rock Bluff, a prominent limestone formation overlooking the winding path of Walnut Cr. The map details the hydrological relationship between these ephemeral streams and the main river corridor, including the course of Little Walnut Cr. For researchers, the map provides a clear picture of modern property access and the persistent land use patterns that define the border between Sterling and Coke counties.
