About this map

Negro Gap stands as a prominent landform in this West Texas ranching landscape, where ephemeral drainages and water management infrastructure define the local geography. To the north, the Soil Conservation Service Site 29 Reservoir regulates flow into Live Oak Cr, reflecting the region's mid-century focus on flood control and soil stabilization. The terrain is characterized by a network of seasonal watercourses, including Fitzgerald Cr and Celery Cr, which carve through the open country.

Local transportation is anchored by Ranch Road 1223 and a series of rural routes such as Potter Rd and Wilhelm Ln. These roads trace the boundaries of large landholdings, connecting isolated homesteads and ranching operations. The presence of named lanes like Waddell Ln indicates established family properties in this portion of Menard County, while the course of N Fork Dry Cr marks the western drainage patterns of the quadrangle.
