2016 Map of Knickerbocker

About this map

The South Concho River valley and the expansive waters of Twin Buttes Reservoir dominate this 2016 survey of the area southwest of San Angelo. The map details a landscape defined by significant water management and aviation infrastructure, including the Twin Buttes Dam and the nearby Lake Nasworthy. Aviation is prominent on the eastern edge of the quadrangle at the San Angelo Regional Airport/Mathis Field, while the smaller Ducote Airpark serves the north. Local history is anchored by the settlement of Knickerbocker in the southwest corner, positioned near the confluence of several drainages like Burks Cr. The terrain is marked by numerous small reservoirs and natural features such as Ketchum Spring, Xqz Lake, and Ripple Reservoir, illustrating the critical role of water sourcing in this portion of Tom Green County.
