2012 Map of Half Moon Prairie

About this map

Half Moon Prairie characterizes this remote portion of Edwards County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of seasonal watercourses and spring-fed draws. The prominence of water sources like Pulliam Springs, Roberts Springs, and Dripping Springs suggests the historical importance of reliable hydration for ranching in this arid Texas environment. Geologic landmarks such as Painted Bluff, Fern Bluff, and the steep Slide Canyon indicate a terrain of significant relief, carved by the winding paths of Pulliam Cr and Cedar Cr. For those researching family ties to the area, the presence of Coalson Cem near the central prairie provides a specific point of interest. The limited road network, including Cedar Creek Rd and Co RD-104, highlights the isolation of these drainage basins and upland draws.
