About this map

Nolan Cem serves as a small but significant historical marker in this portion of Nolan County, where the high plains of the Llano Estacado meet the rolling breaks of North Central Texas. The landscape is defined by the prominent ridge known as The Divide, which separates the drainage systems of the region. Water sources in this arid environment are critical, highlighted by features like Barrel Spring, Boothe Lake, and the ephemeral Nolan Divide Lake.

Transport and land use are etched into the terrain through a network of county roads and a solitary Airstrip located near Hoodoo Draw. The topography is varied, from the elevation of Ninemile Hill and Wildcat Mtn to the low-lying Paige Flat. This survey provides a clear view of the ranching and rural infrastructure established along Holder Creek and its neighboring draws during the early 21st century.
