About this map

Walnut Springs serves as the primary hub for this portion of Bosque County, situated at the edge of a landscape defined by seasonal watercourses and local water management systems. The town is flanked by key community markers including Oak Grove Cemetery to the south and Bryants Landing Airport just to the east. The surrounding countryside reveals a complex network of small dams and artificial reservoirs, such as El Colina Lake Number 2 Dam, El Colina Lake Number 3 Dam, and El Colina Lake Number 4 Dam, which suggest the importance of local water conservation in this central Texas environment.

Further east, the terrain is marked by Corn Gap and the meandering paths of Steele Creek and Cox Branch. Family history and early settlement patterns are evident in the location of Russell Cemetery, placed amidst the drainage of several creek systems. This 2010 survey reflects a period of rural continuity where the land remains divided by private ranching interests and small-scale aviation, centered on the historic crossroads of the local highway system.
