About this map

Flat Rock Draw cuts a prominent path through this 1960s cattle and sheep ranching landscape on the boundary of the Edwards Plateau. The map reveals a land divided by large family-owned ranching operations, including the Adah Cauthorn Ranch, Glasscock Ranch, and Johnson Ranch, each marked with complex networks of unimproved roads and fence lines. This era was defined by a transition in land use, where traditional water sources like Miers Well and the seasonal flows of Buckley Draw were joined by industrial markers like an cross-country Pipeline and multiple Gravel Pits. The border between Sutton and Val Verde Counties bisects the lower third of the sheet, illustrating how these expansive holdings spanned political lines in the search for grazing land and water access along the upper reaches of the Devils R.
