About this map

Paint Rock Spring and the meandering course of the S Llano River define this ranching landscape in Edwards County. The terrain is marked by distinctive limestone features and drainage patterns, including Schoolhouse Bluff and Pecan Bluff, which rise above the river valley. Sparse settlement is concentrated around established locations like the Greer Ranch, connected to the wider region by Old Junction Rd.

The presence of named water features like Green Lake and Little Green Lake highlights the precious nature of surface water in this arid West Texas environment. Intermittent watercourses, such as Guthrie Draw, Knust Draw, and Dry Draw, illustrate the complex drainage system that feeds into the S Llano River and Deer Cr, revealing how topography dictates the movement of water across the Edwards Plateau.
