2016 Map of Pecan Springs

About this map

Pecan Springs sits at the southern edge of this West Texas landscape, where the boundary between McCulloch and San Saba counties follows a strictly north-south line across the terrain. The central geographic feature is the meandering San Saba River, which carves a path through the limestone-dominated country, creating distinct landforms such as the prominent Horseshoe Bend and several deeply cut drainage features like Indian Hollow and Long Valley Hollow. To the north, Brady Creek flows eastward, while the presence of Sycamore Springs indicates the subterranean water systems typical of this part of the Edwards Plateau. Transportation in the mid-2010s relied on a network of county routes, including Co RD 364 and Deep Creek RD, serving a sparsely populated area characterized by ranching operations, such as the one supported by the Deep Creek Ranch Airport.
