About this map

Teacup Mountain and Sugarloaf Mountain rise as prominent landmarks in this section of Hardeman County, defining a landscape carved by deep draws and canyons. The drainage pattern is complex, featuring Bowley Canyon and Sloans Springs Canyon which feed into the Pease River system. This 2010 survey documents the intersection of natural topography and late 20th-century water management, as seen in the presence of Walter Stapp Lake, McCoy Lake, and City Crowell Lake, each held by established dams.

Energy extraction remains a visible part of the local economy through the Canal Creek Oil Field in the west. The area is accessed by a network of rural routes, including FM 1039 and the namesake Teacup Rd, providing a detailed look at the rural infrastructure of north Texas. Other notable water features include Lake Copper Breaks and several uniquely named tributaries like Mud Dauber Creek and Half Circle Creek.
