About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the industrial spine for this region of Central Texas, connecting the growing communities of Leander and Cedar Park. Revised in the late 1980s, the landscape reveals a transition from rural ranching and limestone extraction, evidenced by a large Quarry and numerous Gravel Pits, toward residential expansion in areas like Walkerton. Family history is deeply rooted in the land, with several legacy burial grounds including Bagdad Cem, Upchurch Cem, and Wells Cem situated near the winding course of Brushy Creek. Smaller settlements such as White Stone and Cluck sit alongside established landmarks like the Kittie Hill Airport and Leander High Sch, while the northern reaches are defined by the rugged drainage of the South Fork San Gabriel River and its various springs.
