About this map

The Salt Fork Brazos River winds through this portion of Stonewall County, carving a distinct path through the West Texas landscape. This 2022 survey captures a rural area defined by its drainage systems, including Stinking Cr and Wedington Cr, which feed into the larger river basin. Human presence is concentrated along a network of ranch-to-market roads and county routes, such as FM 1263 and C R 221, which connect the isolated homesteads and pastures characteristic of the region.

Mount Olive Cem serves as a significant genealogical marker for local families, situated in the central portion of the map. The landscape is primarily shaped by agricultural and ranching use, with numerous small roads like Co RD 214 and C R 224 providing access to the interior. The interplay of the river's path and the established road grid offers a clear picture of how modern rural infrastructure adapts to the natural topography of the Brazos River drainage.
