2010 Map of Edna Hill

About this map

Edna Hill and the surrounding rangeland of Comanche County are defined by a complex network of seasonal watercourses and soil conservation efforts. This landscape is drained by numerous winding branches such as Resley Creek, Mills Creek, and Wet Joplin Creek, which create a varied topography near Sand Mountain. The influence of mid-century land management is clearly visible through a series of reservoirs and dams, including Soil Conservation Service Site 18 Reservoir and its counterparts numbered through 23. These infrastructure projects highlight the transition from traditional dry-land farming to managed water resources in this part of Texas. Settlement patterns are concentrated at rural junctions like Hazeldell and Wilson, while family history is anchored by local landmarks like the Barbee Cemetery and Pecan Cemetery. Large agricultural operations like Lightning C Ranch reflect the enduring importance of ranching to the local economy and land use.
