2016 Map of Hillcrest Ranch

About this map

The Hillcrest Ranch property anchors this portion of the Texas Hill Country, where the landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Frio River system. This 2016 survey shows the convergence of the W Frio River and E Frio River amidst a complex network of seasonal drainages known locally as draws. The terrain is marked by significant topographical relief, featuring landmarks like Yellow Bluff Draw and Big Draw that illustrate the erosional patterns of the Edwards Plateau. Local water sources, vital for ranching in this arid environment, are recorded at sites such as Martin Camp Spring. The map documents the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century, including Pasture Rd and Haby Ranch Rd, which navigate the deeply incised valleys and ridges near the border of Real and Kerr Counties.
