About this map

The intersection of Bandera, Kerr, and Kendall counties in the Texas Hill Country reveals a landscape deeply marked by its water sources and family histories. Prominent landmarks such as Turkey Knob and Cloud Mtn overlook a complex network of drainages including Cherry Cr, Big Joshua Cr, and Cibolo Cr. The region's early settlement and genealogical heritage are preserved in site-specific markers like the Langridge Family Cem, Lawyer Cem, and Polly Cem.

Modern residential development is evident through named subdivisions and access roads such as Privilege Estates Ln and Castle Lake Rd. The presence of numerous named springs, such as Sycamore Spring and Champee Spring, alongside water bodies like Christophs Lake and Berry Lake, underscores the historical and practical importance of water management in this arid limestone terrain. This modern topographic record balances traditional ranching landmarks with the contemporary growth seen along Roller Coaster Rd and Lone Pecan Rd.
