2016 Map of Walnut Springs West

About this map

The E Bosque River winds through this central Texas landscape, defining the topography of Bosque County near the borders of Erath and Somervell. In this mid-2010s survey, the western outskirts of Walnut Springs appear alongside an intricate network of livestock and irrigation water sources, including Big Lake, Mustang Lake, and Polnac Lake. The terrain is punctuated by significant rises such as Flat Top Mtn and Cedar Mtn, which overlook the complex drainage systems of Mustang Cr and Rough Cr. Local history is anchored by the Fulton Cem and Barry Cem, providing valuable touchpoints for genealogists researching families from this ranching corridor. The presence of the Flat Top Ranch Airport and various named roads like Taylor Springs and Norway St reflect the long-standing infrastructure of this rural community, where water management is emphasized by features like the Long Curve Dam.
