1970 Map of Big Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Llano River winds through the heart of Kimble County, forming the primary drainage for a landscape defined by deep draws and narrow limestone divides. In the early 1970s, the area remained largely ranchland, evidenced by the numerous Gravel Pits and a prominent Pipeline cutting across the southern terrain. Water sources such as Gorman Spring and the Johnson Fork confluence provided the necessary resources for local landholders in this arid Hill Country region. Local family history is centered around the Gentry Creek Cem, located just north of where Gentry Creek meets the river. Significant landmarks like Teacup Mountain and the wide drainage of Big Draw serve as orienting points for anyone tracing the historic property lines and infrastructure of this rural Texas landscape.
