2010 Map of Pecan Mott

About this map

Pecan Mott serves as the central focal point of this arid landscape in West Texas, situated in an area where water sources historically dictated settlement and survival. Numerous drainages such as Red Creek and Liveoak Creek carve through the terrain, leading toward significant landmarks like Butterfield Canyon and Spring Canyon. The map identifies several vital water points, including Buffalo Spring, Houston Springs, and Mule Creek Spring, which underscore the region's reliance on reliable spring-fed locations. This 2010 survey illustrates a network of local ranch roads, including Sutton Rd, connecting remote parts of Coke County across a landscape of seasonal creeks like Crows Nest Creek and Bald Eagle Creek. The density of named springs and canyons suggests a landscape shaped by both cattle ranching traditions and the geographical demands of the Concho Valley region.
