2016 Map of Nolen Draw

About this map

Turkey Roost Draw and Nolen Draw characterize this West Texas landscape where Sutton, Schleicher, and Crockett counties meet. This high-plateau region, dominated by ephemeral watercourses and ranching access, is defined by its drainage patterns and a network of private and ranch roads. The map documents the specific alignment of Ranch Rd 1312 as it cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle, serving as a primary artery through the rolling terrain. Other named features such as Burns Draw and Buckhorn Draw illustrate the natural topography that has influenced land use and the placement of remote ranching infrastructure. This 2016 survey captures the area at a point when modern transportation like Glasscock Rd and various private routes facilitated the continued management of these expansive Texas lands.
