North Croton Creek and Big Buffalo Creek carve through this section of the West Texas rolling plains, defining a landscape of ranching and water management. The presence of the J M A Ranch and the named water features suggest a focus on cattle operations in an area where seasonal water sources are vital. Engineering on the land is evident in the Parramore Ranch Lake Dam and the Pen Branch Tank Dam, which sustain the Parramore Ranch Lake and Pen Branch Tank. These man-made improvements to the natural drainage of Pen Branch illustrate the intensive resource management required to maintain large-scale ranching in King County.
