2012 Map of Coon Hollow

About this map

The Double Mountain Fork Brazos River winds across the southern reaches of this Stonewall County landscape, anchoring a network of intermittent drainage channels like Salt Cr and Gip Cr. In this cattle-ranching and oil-rich region of West Texas, the landscape is defined by its subtle variations in terrain, including the eponymous Coon Hollow and the prominent Eagle Hill to the northwest. Land use is evidenced by several private water impoundments, such as Leon Anderson Lake, Wayne Porter Lake, and Jim Anderson Lake, which serve as vital resources in this semi-arid environment. Genealogy researchers will find interest in the Johnson Cem, located near the intersection of C R 420 and C R 412, marking a point of historic family settlement. The map illustrates a grid of rural county roads and ranch paths, including Ranch Road 610, that provide access to the remote draws and canyons like Poke Canyon.
