About this map

The settlement of Littig sits at a historic crossroads in eastern Travis County, reflecting a landscape shaped by rural industry and ancestral burial grounds. This 2012 survey documents a transition between established agricultural tracts and emerging residential development, with the drainage of Wilbarger Cr and Elm Cr carving through the terrain. The area is notable for its numerous small family and community burial sites, including Schiller Cem, Hog Eye Cem, and the Youngs Prairie Cem.

Evidence of the region's earlier social structures remains visible through labels like Bitting School Rd, while the Baker's Place Airport and a network of named lanes like Albert Voelker Rd and Klaus Ln show the ongoing modernization of the Texas prairie. Natural features such as Wilbern Spring and Sellers Lake continue to define the local hydrology alongside several branches and creeks that feed the Colorado River basin.
