About this map

The Colorado River defines the northern boundary of this landscape, carving dramatic geological features like Horseshoe Bend and Brady Bend as it winds through the Texas Hill Country. This map captures the rural character of the region where McCulloch, Concho, and Coleman Counties meet. The settlement of Doole serves as a central hub, connected by a network of ranch roads including Ranch Rd 765 and FM 503.

A complex seasonal drainage system of creeks, including Bois d'Arc Cr, Salt Br, and Panther Cr, reveals the area's typical rangeland topography. The presence of the J. L. Cox Estate Lake and the small settlement of Stacy near the river highlights the importance of water access and longstanding landholdings in this part of Texas. This survey provides a clear look at the intersection of livestock ranching and the natural hydrology of the Concho valley floor.
