About this map

The Nueces River carves a deep valley through the canyon country of the southwestern Edwards Plateau, serving as the central artery for the adjacent communities of Barksdale and Camp Wood. This modern survey documents the rugged topographic transition between Edwards and Real counties, where high ridges like Meridian Mtn and Pikes Peak look down upon spring-fed waterways. The settlement pattern remains concentrated near the river, with Barksdale Cem and the Garden of Memories cemetery providing significant points for genealogical research.

Hydrological features are particularly prominent, including Old Faithful Spring and Camp Wood Spring, reflecting the region's reliance on groundwater sources. The drainage network, featuring Pulliam Cr, Spring Cr, and Miller Cr, illustrates the complex erosional patterns that have shaped this portion of the Texas Hill Country. Named peaks such as Wildcat Mtn and Military Mtn define the horizon, while the local road network, including Ranch Rd 335, connects these isolated river valley settlements.
