About this map

Santo sits at the northern end of this mid-1980s landscape, positioned near the meandering course of Pinto Creek and the southern slopes of Turkey Peak. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages and prominent elevations, including Clayton Mountain in the northwest and Bugle Mountain further south. The map documents the rural boundary where the Palo Pinto Co Erath Co line cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle near the settlement of Patillo.

The landscape reflects a mix of natural ruggedness and resource extraction, evidenced by several scattered Gravel Pit operations. Water is a primary feature of the local geography, with numerous named waterways such as Big Sunday Creek, Worser Creek, and Devils Hollow carving through the hills. This topographic study captures a transition between the more settled northern corridors and the quieter ranching or wooded lands reaching toward the Erath County line.
