About this map

Big Buffalo Creek and North Croton Creek carve through the landscape along the King Co Stonewall Co border during the late 1960s. The terrain is defined by a complex network of drainages and seasonal water sources like Pen Branch Tank and Pen Branch. Evidence of ranching and early energy exploration is scattered throughout the region, most notably at the J M A Ranch and several Drill Holes. The presence of an Oil Well and a Gravel Pit indicates the local extraction industry of the era, while a system of Jeep Trails provides the primary means of navigating this dissected terrain. An Indefinite Boundary marks the dividing line between the two counties in this sparsely settled portion of West Texas.
