About this map

The Salt Fork Brazos River winds through this West Texas landscape, defining a region where water management and ranching operations are paramount. This 2010 survey details an intricate network of tanks and windmills essential to the local economy, including the Fulbright Windmill, Patterson Windmill, and Perry Windmill. Named livestock enclosures such as Ellis Pens and Croton Pens are scattered across the terrain, illustrating the functional layout of the area's grazing lands.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the location of Steele Hill Cemetery, situated near the head of Seven Diamond L Canyon. The map also captures the seasonal hydrology of the region, from the drainage of Pitchfork Canyon to established reservoirs like Homer Brinson Lake and Landreth Lake, each with its associated dam infrastructure. These features together provide a clear picture of the modern working ranchlands in Stonewall County.
