About this map

Saint James Cem and the small settlement of Dilworth anchor the southern reaches of this Gonzales County landscape, where the terrain is defined by an intricate network of creeks and small, named catchment lakes. The rural character of the area is evident in the scattered communities of Saturn and Hickston, connected by a web of county roads like Co RD 388 and Co RD 353.

Surface water is a dominant feature, with larger bodies such as Bogue Lake, Parker Lake, and Lavs Lake dotting the central region. The geography transitions from the low-lying Pettit Prairie Flats to more distinct rises like Pin Oak Mound. The drainage patterns of Peach Cr, Mitchell Cr, and Thompson Br illustrate the hydrologic complexity of the Texas coastal plains, while the presence of Elm Slough in the southwest corner indicates the seasonal nature of the local watercourses.
