1969 Map of La Chusa Hill

About this map

Waterhole Hills dominate this portion of McMullen County, where the landscape is defined by the ephemeral flow of Devils Waterhole Creek and Cow Creek. During the late 1960s, this region was a working ranching landscape, characterized by numerous family-named landmarks such as La Chusa Ranch, Rhode Ranch, and the Encino Ranch. The proliferation of windmills across the terrain, including the Gueydan House Windmill and Bartlett Windmills, underscores the vital importance of groundwater for livestock in this semi-arid environment.
