1959 Map of Antelope Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe railroad bisects this Central Texas landscape, following a diagonal path through the high ground between Antelope Creek and Simms Creek. This 1959 survey documents several rural communities and stop-points, including Antelope Gap and Scallorn, which are positioned along the rail line near the Mills Co Lampasas Co border. The topography is defined by significant elevations like Bread Tray Mountain and the deep drainage of Bee Cave Creek and Bear Cove. In the northern part of the quadrangle, the settlement of Pleasant Grove sits on a plateau near the headwaters of North Simms Creek, while the southern edge features the Lometa FAA Radio Towers near Lee Gap. The map captures a moment in the mid-20th century when these small rail-stop communities and ranching outposts like Long Cove remained distinct nodes in the landscape.
