2016 Map of Hill City

About this map

The Squaw Creek Reservoir dominates this portion of the Texas landscape, serving as a massive water feature that bisects the border between Hood and Somervell counties. The reservoir, along with the adjacent Safe Shutdown Impoundment, reflects the industrial and utility-driven land use of the mid-2010s in this region. To the west, the settlement of Hill City sits atop the higher ground, connected by the Hill City Hwy and Farm Rd 201, while the community of Glen Rose appears in the southeast corner near the winding Paluxy River. Local genealogy and land history are preserved through sites like Mount Pleasant Cem and Post Oak Cem, while aviation activity is noted at Parker Airport and the Running M Ranch Airport. The terrain is characterized by numerous seasonal drainages such as Lollar Br and Panther Br that cut through local depressions like Opossum Hollow and Wildcat Hollow.
