About this map

Orient and Tennyson anchor this portion of West Texas, where the landscape transitions across the Coke Co and Tom Green Co line. This 2019 survey documents a terrain defined by prominent elevations like Mt Margaret, Buttermilk Hill, and Kiser Mtn. The drainage system is particularly detailed, showing the courses of Mule Cr, Cedar Cr, and Crows Nest Cr as they navigate the canyon-carved topography.

Genealogical and local history value is found in the location of the Mule Creek Cem and the naming of rural thoroughfares such as Tennyson School Rd and Poverty Canyon Rd. The network of private and ranch roads, including Double Wheel Ranch Rd, illustrates the land-use patterns of modern ranching in the region. Notable landmarks like Deadman Hill and Gobbler Hill provide clear reference points for those studying the physical history of this area north of San Angelo.
