San Francisco Creek and its many seasonal tributaries define the complex drainage patterns at the intersection of Brewster and Terrell counties. This arid landscape is punctuated by water sources like Coe Springs, which have historically dictated movement and land use across these limestone canyons. The topography is dominated by significant landforms such as Five Mile Hill and deeply incised features like Candilla Canyon and Washboard Canyon. A network of unpaved tracks, including Five Mile Hill Rd and Rock Ravine Rd, provides access through the drainage basins of Cedar Cr and Maxon Creek. This map illustrates the intersection of natural water courses and primitive transportation routes in a region where local geography is dictated by the rugged winding of Brindle Canyon and Barrel Canyon.
