About this map

The Llano River cuts a wide path through this portion of the Texas Hill Country, serving as a primary geographic anchor for the region. To the south, the Riley Mountains and distinctive elevations like Dancer Peak and Moore Peak define the topography. The settlement of Gainesville sits east of the rugged drainage of Molasses Creek, while Granite Hills Ranch occupies the northern reaches near Pennington Creek.

Genealogists and local historians can find several significant burial sites, including Pennington Creek Cemetery, Cap Mountain Cemetery, Paschall Cemetery, and Honey Creek Cemetery, which offer clues to the early families who settled near these watercourses. The network of county roads, such as Co RD 306 and Country Rd 308A, connects these scattered settlements and points of interest across the varied terrain of Dancer Flats and Devils Hollow.
