2012 Map of Buffalo Gap

About this map

Buffalo Gap sits at the heart of this landscape, positioned along the banks of Elm Cr just south of the Callahan Divide. This 2012 survey illustrates the transition from the expanding suburban residential blocks of Wylie and Caps in the north to the more open ranching and agricultural terrain of southern Taylor County. The presence of Butterfield School Rd recalls the area's pioneer educational heritage, while the Buffalo Gap Cem and Iberis Cem provide essential anchor points for genealogical research. The geography is defined by narrow creek corridors like Cedar Cr and Cat Claw Cr, which cut through the elevated southern ridges. Modern land use is further evidenced by the Abilene Speedway and the dense grid of county roads and farm-to-market routes that connect the scattered settlements of Cedar Gap and the surrounding prairie.
