1948 Map of Bastrop
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
The Colorado River meanders through the heart of this post-war Texas landscape, carving distinct features like Wilbargers Bend, Hemphill Bend, and Powell Bend. This 1948 survey shows a rural society organized around small communities and family-named land features, including Hemphill Prairie and David Bottom. Significant land use is marked by the sprawling Camp Swift Military Reservation in the northeast and the established Bastrop State Park south of the city center.
