2022 Map of Crawford Slide

About this map

Crawford Slide anchors this high-elevation landscape along the Sterling Co Coke Co boundary, where a network of ephemeral watercourses and deep canyons defines the local geography. The area is characterized by significant topographic relief, most notably at Goat Mtn and within the rugged depths of Pierce Canyon and Grubs Canyon. A specialized transportation and settlement pattern is evident through the presence of Bodine Airport and remote rural roads such as Knight Canyon Rd and Mendenhall Ln. Water sources, critical in this West Texas environment, are marked by named drainages like S Gasconades Cr, Pecan Cr, and Kates Cr, along with the secluded Cosby Spring. The naming of Cemetery Draw suggests localized history and early land use often sought by genealogists researching family ties in the canyons of Coke County.
