About this map

The Double Mountain Fork Brazos River winds through this West Texas landscape, carving a deep path that defines the local geography. Significant topographical features like White Canyon and Spring Canyon illustrate the erosion patterns characteristic of the Rolling Plains, while Bullock Bend marks a sharp meander in the river’s course. This area of Stonewall County is defined by a sparse network of county roads and ranching infrastructure, emphasizing the rural, open character of the region during the early 21st century.

Genealogical and local history interest centers on the Dowell Cem, located in the southern portion of the quadrangle near Co RD-236. Water sources such as Collins Cr, Nicholson Cr, and Gyp Cr drain into the primary river valley, supporting the local ranching economy. The road network, including Ranch Road 610 and FM-2598, connects the various family-named roads and scattered ranching points across the terrain.
