2016 Map of Buffalo Well

About this map

Buffalo Well and the surrounding rangelands of the Edwards Plateau define this 2016 survey along the southern border of Schleicher County. The landscape is marked by intermittent watercourses and topographic depressions, most notably the seasonal drainage of Middle Valley Prong and the prominent Bull Hollow. This area is characterized by large-scale ranching operations and utility infrastructure, as evidenced by the network of private ranch roads and the alignment of Old Pipeline Rd. A primary corridor is formed by Ranch Rd 864, which traverses the southern portion of the quadrangle near the Buffalo Draw basin. The map illustrates the sparse, high-plains settlement pattern of West Texas, where development is tied closely to water access and energy transportation routes across the Schleicher and Sutton county line.
