About this map

The community of Rowden serves as the focal point for this section of Callahan County, where the landscape is defined by a dendritic network of seasonal stream branches and significant terrain landmarks. West Caddo Peak rises as a prominent high point in the east, overlooking the headwaters of the W Prong Burnt Br and the main course of Burnt Br. These waterways, along with others like Bear Br and Turkey Cr, illustrate the drainage patterns essential to the local ranching and agricultural economy.

Evidence of modern land management is visible through the Soil Conservation Service Site 1a Reservoir, while the presence of the Burnt Branch Cem south of the peak provides a crucial touchstone for genealogists and local historians. The area's connectivity is maintained through a web of county roads and FM 2287, which link the various family-named roads and private properties across this traditional Texas landscape.
