2022 Map of Blucher Mountain

About this map

Spring Creek serves as a central landmark for this portion of San Saba County, where a network of seasonal branches and creeks carves through the landscape. The settlement patterns are punctuated by small family and community burial grounds, such as Neal Cem and Spring Creek Cem, which sit alongside historic ranch roads like FM 500. Water management is a defining characteristic of the modern era here, evidenced by the Lower San Saba River WS SCS Site Sixteen Reservoir and Lower San Saba River WS SCS Site Twelve Reservoir, both part of the Soil Conservation Service's efforts to manage the watershed. Private aviation and agriculture are visible through features like Buzzard Creek Airstrip and Yates Field. The map also captures the path of Richland Springs Cr as it flows toward the Old Algerita Cem area, providing a detailed record of local geography and land use in the Texas Hill Country.
