2022 Map of Murph Draw

About this map

Ruby Point and Bean Hill stand as prominent landmarks in this section of the Edwards Plateau, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainage channels. The map illustrates a ranching and rural residential environment straddling the boundary of Coke County and Tom Green County. Water management and natural drainage are central to the area's geography, with the W Fork Grape Cr and E Fork Grape Cr converging toward the south near Grape Cr. A variety of named draws, including Murph Draw, Butterfield Draw, and Lime Kiln Draw, reveal the historical importance of these watercourses for navigation and land division. The road network, featuring routes like Walnut Grove and March Rd, connects isolated homesteads and grazing lands, reflecting the enduring rural character of West Texas in the early 21st century.
