About this map

Crowther is situated in the north-central portion of this South Texas landscape, where the ranching infrastructure of McMullen County meets a complex network of intermittent drainages. The area is defined by its water management systems, featuring numerous livestock tanks with evocative names like Pot of Gold Tank, Van Meter Tank, and Persimmon Hollow Tank. These small reservoirs support the cattle operations that dominate the brush country terrain between the San Miguel Cr and Opossum Cr basins.

To the south, Yarbrough Lake provides a significant water feature near the junction of Ranch Road 99 and Farm-To-Market Road 3445. The map also details local private landmarks like the Gubel Trust Lake Number 3, while topographic elevations such as Opossum Hill break the otherwise subtle gradients of the drainage flats. Local transport is facilitated by rural routes like Jambers Rd and the strikingly named Purgatory Rd.
