About this map

The Divide serves as a central topographical feature in this section of Nolan County, where the landscape is defined by the headwaters of numerous seasonal drainages. The complex network of draws and creeks, including Hoodoo Draw, Robtann Draw, and Dill Canyon, illustrates the erosional patterns of the West Texas plains. Water sources are critical in this arid environment, marked by the presence of Barrel Spring, Boothe Lake, and Nolan Divide Lake, which likely support the ranching operations characteristic of the region.

Settlement patterns appear sparse and primarily dedicated to large-scale landholdings such as the Double Heart Ranch. For genealogists and local historians, the Nolan Cem provides a specific point of interest, while named landmarks like Wildcat Mtn, Ninemile Hill, and Little Blue Gainey Points offer navigational anchors across the open terrain. A modest road network, including Ranch Road 608 and several county roads, connects these remote points of interest.
