About this map

The Double Mountain Fork Brazos River carves a complex path through this section of Stonewall County, creating a rugged landscape defined by Devils Canyon and various intermittent drainages. This high-plains terrain is marked by essential water management features for ranching, including River Tank, Moore Tank, and Headquarters Tank. The topography rises toward the landmark of Frog Mtn in the east, while the northern reaches transition into more organized agricultural plots and cattle country.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant markers of early settlement at Rayner Cem and Old Glory Cem. The map illustrates a network of rural transit, from state routes like FM 1835 to numerous county roads and private tracks that provide access to the remote draws and creeks, such as Alkali Draw and Willow Cr. The naming conventions of the landscape, including Salt Br and Deadman Br, reflect the stark natural environment of this West Texas region.
