1963 Map of Brady SW

About this map

Brady Reservoir sits at the northern edge of this McCulloch County landscape, recorded during a period of active water management and infrastructure development in the early 1960s. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including Crooked Creek, Bear Creek, and Post Oak Creek, which carve through the Texas brush country. Several smaller impoundments, specifically Reservoir No 6, Reservoir No 4, and Reservoir No 5, are documented with their respective spillway elevations, such as Spillway Elev 1915. These features, along with scattered Quarry sites, indicate a landscape modified for ranching and resource extraction. Farther south, the watershed transitions toward Camp Creek and Rumsey Creek, offering a detailed view of the rural topography before later decades of further development or land-use changes altered these drainages.
