2019 Map of Purdy Hill

About this map

The Mason Mountains dominate the northwest corner of this quadrangle, giving way to a landscape defined by seasonal creek beds and scattered family landmarks. The town of Mason sits in the southwest, serving as a hub for the surrounding ranching country. Local history is deeply etched into the land through numerous small burial grounds, including the Old Gooch Cem and New Gooch Cem, alongside the Behrens Cem and Jones Cem. Aviation is represented by private facilities like the Polk Ranch Airport and Bar Triangle Airport. The hydrological network, centered on the drainage of Little Willow Cr, Mitchell Cr, and the springs at Gamel Spring, illustrates the vital importance of water management in this part of the Texas Hill Country.
