2016 Map of Deep Creek

About this map

The Leona River and its various tributaries cut through the varied topography of this Uvalde County landscape, where prominent elevations like Green Mtn and Flag Mtn overlook a network of seasonal drainages and named hollows. This area is characterized by a high concentration of topographical features, including the notable Sawmill Canyon and Lightning Bug Hollow north of the central drainage. A significant family-named landmark, the Davenport Cem, is located along the eastern edge of the quadrangle near the route of the Dry Frio River. The geography transitions from the higher reaches of Davenport Hill down toward the southern lowlands near Black Hill, illustrating the complex watershed patterns between the Deep Cr and the Little Indian Cr systems.
