About this map

The South Concho River defines the western reaches of this Tom Green County landscape, feeding the South Concho Irrigation Canal as it passes the community of Christoval. This 2012 survey illustrates the transition from the river valley to the limestone uplands of the Edwards Plateau, marked by distinctive heights like Mtn Susan and Brushy Knob. Evidence of early settlement and land use persists in the naming of local infrastructure, such as the storied Toenail Trl and the DeLong Cem near Walnut Cr.

Water sources are central to the geography here, with Anson Spring and numerous ephemeral drainages like McKildrick Draw and Millers Br carving through the terrain. Aviation history is represented by Brown Field Airport south of the main settlement. The network of local roads, including Door Key Rd and Ranch Road 2335, connects the various ranches and homesteads that have long characterized this part of West Texas.
