About this map

Dry Devils River and the ephemeral drainage of Buffalo Draw define the topography of this Val Verde County landscape. The area is characterized by isolated cattle operations and water management infrastructure, including Rock Barn Tank and several named wells such as Windmill Number One and Buffalo Windmill. These features indicate the critical nature of water access in the arid Edwards Plateau region.

Settlement is sparse, anchored by the Four Mills site and private holdings like Whitehead Ranch and Oil Well Ranch. Transportation through this stretch of West Texas is primarily facilitated by Buffalo Rd and the main highway corridor that parallels the Dry Devils River bed. This map illustrates the intersection of traditional ranching boundaries with natural geographic markers like County Line Draw.
