About this map

Cattle and sheep ranching define the landscape of the Edwards Plateau in the late 1960s, where the convergence of Crockett, Sutton, and Val Verde counties creates a patchwork of family-owned holdings. The terrain is dominated by a complex network of dry washes and canyons, most notably the Devils River and its fork, the Dry Devils River. Large tracts of land belong to established ranching families, including the Phillips Ranch, Hunt Ranch, and Hunnicutt Ranch, illustrating the sparse but enduring settlement pattern of the Texas Hill Country.
