2010 Map of Wiley Waterhole

About this map

Wiley Waterhole sits at a critical junction of Edwards County drainage, where the intermittent channel of the West Nueces River carves through the Texas Hill Country. This 2010 survey illustrates the complex network of draws and arroyos that define the local hydrology, such as Newberry Draw and Government Draw, which serve as vital conduits for seasonal runoff. The primary transportation artery, Ranch Rd 674, follows the natural contours of the river valley, providing access to remote ranching properties and landmarks like Family Draw. Water features such as Bluff Creek and Cherry Creek highlight the reliance on specific waterholes in this arid landscape. The map provides a precise layout of rural roads, including Cedar Creek Rd, and topographic variations from Fourmile Draw to the East Fork Sycamore Creek, revealing the spatial relationship between limited water resources and regional access routes.
