About this map

The hills of western Hays County are defined by deep limestone drainages and prominent summits like Mt Sharp and Jack Mtn. This modern survey of the Texas Hill Country captures a landscape shaped by the Blanco River and the meandering path of Cypress Creek. Local family history is preserved in small burial grounds such as Gatlin-Garrett Cem and Mount Sharp Cem, which sit atop the ridges and valleys of the Edwards Plateau.

A network of ranch roads, including Ranch Rd 2325 and Mt Sharp Rd, connects historic properties to natural landmarks like Jacobs Well Spring. The topography transitions from the dramatic relief of Colemans Canyon to the eastern reaches of Rough Hollow, illustrating the hydrological importance of the region with features like Big Dam Lake and the confluence of numerous creeks such as South Onion Creek and Wilson Creek.
