1971 Map of Indian Creek NE

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Possum Spring and the headwaters of Indian Creek characterize this high-country landscape in Edwards County during the early 1970s. The topography is defined by deep incisions from drainage systems like Little Hackberry Draw and Possum Creek, where water access was a primary driver for human presence. The sparse settlement pattern is evidenced by an isolated Ranch and scattered infrastructure, including a Well and a Gravel Pit. Transport across this dissected terrain relies on a network of unpaved paths and a Jeep Trail, illustrating the remote nature of the Edwards Plateau before extensive modern development. This survey, compiled from 1970 aerial photography, documents the functional relationship between livestock ranching and the area's scarce water resources.
