1967 Map of Lake Buchanan

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Lake Buchanan dominates this 1967 survey of the Texas Hill Country, straddling the line between Burnet and Llano counties. The map captures the shoreline development and recreational infrastructure of the late 1960s, featuring the Buchanan Dam and its associated powerhouse at the southern edge where the Colorado River feeds into Inks Lake. The settlement of Bluffton is situated on the western shore, served by Lakeshore Drive and a series of lakeside parks like Black Rock Park and Roadside Park. Interior details show the rugged creek systems that feed the reservoir, including Sandy Creek and North Coggins Creek. Unique landmarks such as the Aero-Bee Ranch Landing Strip and the Filtration Plant indicate the region's evolving utility and transportation needs during this era of growth.
