Buffalo Spring and Houston Springs mark the arid landscape of the West Texas divide, where the boundary between Coke Co and Tom Green Co follows the high ground. This 2016 survey illustrates the complex drainage patterns of the region, featuring deep incisions like Butterfield Canyon and Spring Canyon that feed into the larger creek systems. Water sources are the defining landmarks here, from the headwaters of Bald Eagle Cr in the west to Mule Creek Spring in the east. The map records the sparse network of rural routes, including Sutton Rd and Mount Rd, which navigate the terrain between seasonal watercourses such as Crows Nest Cr and Valentine Br. The topography reveals a land defined by its hydrology, where named springs provided essential anchor points for ranching and travel.
