2016 Map of Buck Mountain

About this map

Breckenridge anchors the northern edge of this North Texas survey, where the town's grid gives way to a landscape defined by significant water management and varied topography. The presence of the Petroleum Corporation of Texas Reservoir and Hubbard Cr Reservoir highlights the industrial and municipal water needs of Stephens County. The terrain is punctuated by distinct high points including Buck Mtn, Hog Mtn, and Spy Mtn, which provide natural landmarks amidst a network of ranch roads and country lanes. For those researching local family history, several burial grounds are preserved across the area, including Post Oak Cem, Hart Cem, and the Van Winkle Cem near the western boundary. The map also records the rural settlement of South Hanlon and the Stephens County Airport, illustrating the mix of traditional cattle country and modern infrastructure near the headwaters of Gunsolus Creek.
