About this map

The Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park occupies the northwestern corner of this Texas Hill Country survey, centered on the Pedernales River and the private Johnson Family Cem. This landscape is defined by its aviation-linked ranching culture, featuring multiple private airstrips including LBJ Ranch Airport, Hye Airport, and the Kennedy Ranch Airport to the south.

Small rural settlements like Hye and Albert serve as historic nodes for a network of winding ranch roads such as Ranch Rd 1623 and Basse-Jerschke Rd. The terrain is deeply etched by a complex drainage system including the Middle Fork Williams Cr and W-Fork Rocky Cr, which flow between landmarks like Coyote Ridge and Biker Rock Hill. The survey captures the triple junction of Gillespie, Blanco, and Kendall counties, documenting the modern boundaries of legacy Texas landholdings.
