About this map

The confluence of the Brazos River and Little River dominates this section of the Texas interior, defining the boundary between Milam and Robertson counties. The landscape transitions from the river bottomlands to prominent elevations such as Sugarloaf Mtn and Long Mtn in the west. The small community of Gause serves as a local hub, situated along the highway near the Armstrong Cem.

To the northeast, Valley Junction marks a significant intersection of transport and geography near the river's bend. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of drainage systems including Threemile Creek, Dollar Cr, and Whiskey Hollow. Local history is preserved in the placement of the Long Cem and the naming of local landmarks that reflect the rural agricultural character of the region during this contemporary period.
