2019 Map of East Elm Creek

About this map

Coleman Spring and its surrounding draws anchor this section of Menard County, where a network of seasonal watercourses defines the limestone-carved terrain. The landscape is marked by deep topographic relief in the form of multiple named hollows, including Hog Hollow, Fox Hollow, and the significant length of Coon Hollow. These features reflect the natural drainage patterns of Elm Cr and E Elm Cr, which transition across the high plateau. The map details a sophisticated network of private and ranch roads, such as Walker Ln, Kothmann Ln, and Hat Creek Trl, indicating a modern landscape dedicated to large-scale ranching. The presence of FM 1773 provides the primary east-west corridor through this sparsely populated ranching country, connecting various lanes and properties like Winslow Ln and Powell Ln.
