About this map

The Double Mountain Fork Brazos River winds through the heart of this Stonewall County landscape, defining a terrain of rugged draws and essential water tanks. In this corner of West Texas, the small community of Flat Top sits near the river's path, while the namesake Frog Mountain rises to the east. The map documents a classic ranching and resource economy, evidenced by the numerous water features such as Alkali Tank, Moore Tank, and Coon Creek Tank, alongside a network of windmills like the Murdock Windmill and Salt Branch Windmill.

Family and local history are preserved at the Old Glory Cemetery and Rayner Cemetery, providing vital touchstones for genealogists tracing early settlers. To the north, the Letz Oil Field indicates the region's energy footprint. This survey effectively illustrates the reliance on intermittent waterways like Salt Branch and Willow Creek in a landscape where every windmill and tank represents a critical piece of the local infrastructure.
