2020 Map of Piersol Hills

About this map

Piersol Hills and the surrounding high plateau of Douglas County are defined by a network of sectional roads and glacial terrain features. This land-use pattern, visible in the strictly grid-based arrangement of routes like RD 14 Ne and Six Mile Rd, reflects the systematic agricultural development of the Big Bend country. Local topography is punctuated by distinctive named rises such as the Wheeler Hills and Hook Hills, which overlook Rummel Lake. A notable landmark for navigation across this open landscape is Yeager Rock, located near the center of the survey area. The presence of routes such as Leahy-Mansfield Rd NE underscores the connectivity between rural farming communities in a region where the terrain dictates the flow of transport and water drainage.
