2010 Map of Cutting Pen Draw

About this map

Cutting Pen Draw winds through this sparsely settled pocket of the Texas Hill Country, defining the drainage patterns of a landscape dominated by ranching and intermittent seasonal streams. The terrain is largely shaped by the winding courses of Indian Creek and Kickapoo Creek, which carve through the Edwards Plateau. Transportation in the early twenty-first century remains focused on a network of unpaved roads and ranch access routes, most notably Cedar Creek Rd and Robinson Rd. The prominence of named private infrastructure like Voger Ranch Rd and Carroll Ranch Rd indicates the persistent large-acreage landholding patterns typical of this region. This survey captures the area before modern development, showing a territory where the natural topography of draws and creeks still dictates the placement of every road and boundary.
