2012 Map of Mineral Wells West

About this map

The Brazos River creates a winding geography of deep bends and hollows in this 2012 survey, defining the landscape west of the city. Notable river features such as Hart Bend, Ballenger Bend, and Hittson Bend anchor the rural terrain, which is dotted with historical family landmarks including Locke Cem and Pollard Cem. The area around Coronados Camp and the southern slopes of Barber Mtn illustrate a transition from open country to the suburban fringes of the community. In the eastern portion of the map, the grid of residential streets near Lake Pinto and Flying U Airport contrasts with the remote character of Devils Hollow and Birdwell Hollow to the northwest. Modern infrastructure follows historical routes, with the E Bankhead Hwy traversing the valley floor through Pleasant Valley and near Indian Creek Cem.
