2016 Map of Fort McKavett NW

About this map

Schleicher County ranchland and seasonal drainage patterns characterize this 2016 survey of the Edwards Plateau. The landscape is defined by its subtle topographic shifts, including the depressions of East Poor Hollow and Poor Hollow in the southwest and Milligan Draw toward the southeast. These geographic features, along with Rocky Cr, represent the crucial water-catchment network essential for agricultural and livestock operations in this arid region of Texas. A modest grid of county roads provides the primary access to these remote parcels, with Rudd Rd and Co Rd 339 cutting through the open range. The map illustrates a contemporary view of rural land management, where traditional ranching boundaries are maintained by a sparse but vital network of improved and unimproved roads.
