About this map

Chalk Mountain rises as a prominent landmark in this corner of North Central Texas where Erath, Hood, and Somervell counties meet. This 2019 survey illustrates a landscape defined by the drainage of the E Bosque River and numerous tributaries like Rough Cr and Lallah Br. The area is characterized by many named hollows, including Buffalo Hollow, Little Kid Hollow, and Big Kid Hollow, which cut through the limestone terrain typical of the region.

Private land use and ranching history are evident through features such as the Circle Eight Ranch Airport and a series of smaller impoundments like Brock Lake Number 2 Dam and Chimney Lake. The transportation network is a mix of state FM roads and an extensive system of county roads, such as Co RD 194 and Co RD 2013, that provide access to the remote ridges and valleys surrounding the Lone Mtn formation.
