2010 Map of Walnut Springs West

About this map

Walnut Springs anchors the eastern edge of this landscape, where the prairie of Bosque County meets the controlled waters of the East Bosque River and North Bosque River. In the early 21st century, this area is defined by the extensive operations of the Flat Top Ranch, which manages numerous water features including East Flat Top Lake and South Flat Top Lake. The terrain is punctuated by distinctive rises such as Flat Top Mountain, Cedar Mountain, and Dinner Hill, providing natural orientation points across the ranch lands. Local heritage is preserved at the Fulton Cemetery and Barry Cemetery, located near the southern bends of the East Bosque. A complex network of water management is visible through labels like Mustang Lake Dam, Beecherl Dam, and the Irrigation Dam, illustrating how the ranching economy has historically harnessed the local drainage systems of Mustang Creek and Hester Branch.
