2022 Map of Burr Oak Creek

About this map

Burr Oak Cr and its tributaries carve a network of drainages across this central Texas landscape on the boundary of Tom Green County and Concho County. The terrain is defined by a series of high ridges and deep draws, where seasonal waterways like Kickapoo Cr and Frog-Pond Cr flow toward the larger Brady Cr basin to the southeast. Sparse road infrastructure, including Co Rd 2275 and the historically significant Fort Mckavett Rd, follows the natural contours of the land, avoiding the steepest elevation changes. This modern survey reflects a region primarily dedicated to large-scale ranching, where the distribution of water sources like Welch Cr dictates the movement of people and livestock across the limestone hills. The map provides a clear view of the topographic relief that has long influenced the settlement patterns and travel routes of this part of the Edwards Plateau.
