2011 Map of Timber Hill

About this map

Belltower Divide serves as a prominent geographic spine in this section of Carter County, separating the drainages that feed into Speelmon Creek and Plum Creek. The landscape is defined by its water management and livestock infrastructure, marked by numerous named springs such as Icebox Spring, Ballinger Spring, and the multi-part Maverick Spring Number 1. These reliable water sources supported ranching operations across the high plains, as evidenced by the distribution of reservoirs like Brewer Reservoir and Gergen Reservoir. Local history is anchored at the Pioneer Cemetery, which sits near Big Tree Draw. The map reveals a network of essential roads, including Tie Creek Rd and Chimney Rock Rd, which connect the isolated draws and timbered ridges that give Timber Hill its name.
