About this map

The Colorado River defines the landscape of this Fayette County survey, winding through the center of the terrain as it passes by Chalk Bluff and Indian Hill. To the west, the rural community of Plum sits along the road network near the winding Hill Creek, while the settlement of Prairie Valley occupies the western edge of the quadrangle. Transport and infrastructure are prominent, featuring the Fayette Regional Air Center and Guenther Field/La Grange Municipal Airport located south of the river.

Local history and genealogy are preserved through several family and community landmarks, including Mantan Cemetery, Taylor Cemetery, and Williams Cemetery. The area south of the river is marked by the presence of Monument Hill, overlooking the Buckners Creek drainage. Significant water management features are evident in the north, specifically the Clear Lake Pines 1 reservoir system regulated by Clear Lake Pines Dam 1 and its associated structures.
