1963 Map of Buffalo Well SE

About this map

North Llano River valley life in the early 1960s is defined by a sparse network of family-held ranch lands and deep drainage patterns. This West Texas landscape, characterized by the rugged Ibrokeleg Mountain and the converging paths of Buffalo Draw and Tenmile Draw, illustrates the isolated nature of cattle country before modern expansion. Scattered settlements like Abney Ranch, Shroyer Ranch, and Allison Ranch are connected by a mix of unimproved tracks and the locally significant Baker Road. The presence of the Little Ogden Waterhole provides a specific point of interest for those studying the water management and livestock history of the region. This 1963 survey, updated in the early 1980s, documents a transition in infrastructure, noting several Gravel Pits and a Landing Strip that hint at the industrial and logistical shifts occurring in Sutton County.
