About this map

McCathrine Mtn and the surrounding rangeland of Shackelford County are defined by a network of seasonal drainages and private ranch roads. The landscape is carved by the Salt Prong Hubbard Cr and the main channel of Hubbard Creek, which flow toward the Hubbard Cr Lake in the northeast corner of the quadrangle. This area, largely comprised of large ranch holdings, is accessed via routes like Ranch Rd 601 and numerous private tracks such as Pvt Rd Jolyn.

Local family history is rooted in sites like Lynch Cem and Perrish Cem, which sit among the drainage of Hubbard Creek. The presence of the Area 142 Airport near the southern boundary and the prominent Flat Top elevation indicate the varied utility and topography of this Texas terrain. The map's detail preserves the specific alignment of early 21st-century rural infrastructure, from the Hubbard Creek Bridge to the remote crossing at Viertel Way.
