BABYHEAD MOUNTAIN. Babyhead Mountain is ten miles north of Llano
in northern Llano County (at 30°54' N, 98°40' W). A baby's skull
was reportedly found there. The summit, with an elevation of
1,627 feet, rises 200 feet above State Highway 16 to the
northeast. The surrounding terrain is flat to rolling, with
local dissection, and surfaced by sandy and clay loams that
support open stands of live oak and mesquite. Wilburn Oatman,
