2010 Map of Caradan

About this map

Caradan anchors this rural Mills County landscape, a region defined by its complex network of seasonal creeks and modern water management. The terrain is marked by significant elevations like Huckabee Hill and Lookout Mountain, which overlook a series of small, private reservoirs and conservation projects. Notable water features include Stillwell Lake and Parker Lake, as well as larger structures such as the Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by the Lampasas River and South Lampasas River, alongside numerous named tributaries like Mustang Creek and Gholson Creek. This map illustrates the transition toward managed water resources in central Texas, with multiple dams and lake numbers, such as McCasland Lake Number 1, indicating a landscape shaped by mid-to-late 20th-century agricultural and conservation engineering.
