1971 Map of Devils Sinkhole

About this map

Devils Sinkhole (Cavern) dominates the central landscape of this Edwards County survey, a distinctive geological feature within a complex network of dry draws and seasonal creek beds. The 1971 data reveals a rugged Edwards Plateau environment where drainage patterns like Guthrie Draw, Hackberry Creek, and Deer Creek carve deep into the terrain. Human infrastructure is sparse, characterized by a utilitarian Landing Strip, a series of pipelines, and a private road network that suggests large-scale ranching or resource management.
