1967 Map of Hammetts Crossing

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Pedernales River waters carve a deep path through the Texas Hill Country in this late-1960s survey, marking the intersection of Blanco, Hays, and Travis counties. The landscape is defined by its dramatic hydrology, from the churning cascades at Pedernales Falls to the submerged reaches of Lake Travis further downstream. The namesake Hammetts Crossing and the nearby Dead Mans Ford suggest the historical necessity of specific river transit points in a region of sharp relief and narrow limestone canyons. Within Pedernales Falls State Park, the terrain reveals the transition from upland flats to the steep drainage of Hamilton Creek and Flat Creek. This edition also captures local landmarks such as Hamilton Pool and Dead Mans Hole, alongside evidence of utility expansions like the Pipeline corridors crossing the wooded ridges.
