Buffalo Gap sits at the base of the Callahan Divide, where the modern road network follows historic natural passages through the high ground south of Abilene. This survey documents a landscape of transition, from the residential expansion near Wylie and Caps to the established cemetery sites and ranching infrastructure further south. The topography is defined by the drainage systems of Elm Cr and Cat Claw Cr, while specific local water management is noted at Feed Lot Tank and Red Hill Tank. Genealogists and local historians can find precise locations for Buffalo Gap Cem and Iberis Cem, providing a clear record of the area's social geography as it appeared in the mid-2010s.
