1964 Map of A Bar A Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Medina River and its multiple headwater forks carve through this section of the Texas Hill Country, defining a landscape dominated by livestock ranching and rural family homesteads in the early 1960s. The convergence of the North Prong Medina River and West Prong Medina River serves as a focal point for settlement, where the A Bar A Ranch and Rocky River Ranch are situated among numerous smaller operations like the Horse Valley Ranch. Local genealogy is deeply etched into the land through family-named sites such as Means Cem, Goodman Cem, and Baker Cem. The map reveals a specialized infrastructure for this remote terrain, including multiple private Landing Strips and a Jeep Trail winding through Rhyme Hollow, illustrating how these ranching communities maintained connectivity before more modern road networks reached deep into the canyons.
