About this map

The Nueces River winds along the western edge of this territory, where the sharp transition from river valley to upland peaks is defined by the Rawhide Mountains. This drainage basin is characterized by a dense network of seasonal and perennial waterways including Lake Cr, Blucher Cr, and Honey Cr, which have carved deep topographical features such as Cox Hollow and Dugwell Canyon.

Remote infrastructure is centered around the Fossil Creek Ranch Airport, reflecting the region's ranching and aviation history. Water security in this arid landscape is highlighted by named sources like Rawhide Spring and Walnut Springs, as well as a series of reservoirs including Williams Lake Number 1, Williams Lake Number 2, and Williams Lake Number 3. The southern reaches are accessed via Ranch Rd 1051, providing a primary artery through the complex terrain of Fulghum Hollow and Indian Cr.
