About this map

The tiny settlement of Sanco anchors the southeastern portion of this Coke County survey, situated at the intersection of Sanco Loop and Arledge Rd. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent rises and drainage systems, including Horse Mtn and Durham Peak. These landmarks overlook the winding course of Yellow Wolf Creek, which flows south toward the Colorado River basin. The landscape is primarily rural and agricultural, characterized by its network of creeks such as Rough Cr and Meadow Cr.

A notable geographic divide is marked by the Nolan Co Coke Co boundary line crossing the northern part of the map. In the west, the topography rises toward Meadow Mtn and the pass known as Panther Gap, where the road winds through high ground. Local land use is reflected in family-named roads like Arledge Rd and the presence of numerous small drainages like Willmo Sand Cr, showing the importance of water management in this part of West Texas.
