About this map

The San Saba River meanders across the southern portion of this landscape, its course marked by historical fords including Fivemile Crossing and Tenmile Crossing. In the early 1970s, the region's agricultural dependency is clearly signaled by the Menard Irrigation Company Canal, which runs parallel to the river. The northern terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainage channels, most notably Chapman Draw, Mann Draw, and the curiously named 160 Acre Draw. Transport and topographic elevation are anchored by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Creek rail corridor in the west and Hyman Hill in the east. This survey documents the intersection of essential water management and transit routes through the Texas Hill Country, preserving the locations of several Gravel Pits that reflect local industrial activity during this period.
