About this map

San Miguel Creek dominates the hydrology of this South Texas landscape, feeding into the expansive Yarbrough Lake in the southeast. The area is characterized by a high density of water management features, including numerous stock tanks and small reservoirs such as the Pot of Gold Tank, Persimmon Hollow Tank, and Gravel Tank. These features, along with the Gubel Trust Lake Number 3 and Gubel Trust Lake Number 2, reflect the intensive land use required for ranching in this semi-arid region.

Crowther serves as the primary named settlement, situated near the intersection of Jambers Rd and Jambers Ranch Rd. The terrain is marked by subtle rises such as Opossum Hill, with drainage provided by seasonal watercourses like Frenchman Br, Mustang Br, and Elm Cr. The road network, including Tyler Ranch Rd and Walker Rd, provides access to these remote ranchlands, illustrating the rural infrastructure of McMullen County in the early 21st century.
