Nueces Canyon North

The northern portion of the Nueces Canyon consists of deeply dissected canyons, primarily along the Middle Nueces River as well as Hackberry, Bullhead, and Pulliam Creeks.  To the north, the canyon extends to approximately 4 miles south of TX highway 41 in Edwards County; to the east the canyons extend well into Real County to the vicinity of Ranch Roads 336 (not shown) and 3235.  To the west, the canyons extend to about 10 miles east of Rocksprings.

On the map provides, the small town of Vance is at the extreme southern end of the map at the jct of Ranch Roads 335 and 2631.  The town of Rocksprings is just to the west of the map at the jct of US highway 377 and TX highway 55.  Edwards County is the west of the green line, while Real County is to the east.

The Middle Nueces River follows the county line (roughly) to the confluence of it & Hackberry Creek about 10 miles north of Vance.  The Nueces River continues east from this point, paralleled by the dirt Hackberry Road, while Hackberry Creek continues north and is paralleled by Ranch Road 335.  Bullhead Creek joins the Middle Nueces River at Vance, and is paralleled by Ranch Road 2631.  Pulliam Creek and its tributaries are roughly followed by the route of TX Hwy 55.
