1968 Map of Monument Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Blue Mountains dominate the central topography of this 1968 survey, where the Kimble and Mason County line cuts through the western ranch lands of the Texas Hill Country. This area is characterized by a network of drainage systems feeding into the James River, including the winding paths of Little Rocky Creek and Mill Creek. Cultural landmarks reflect the community life of the era, such as the Blue Mountain Community Hall near the northern boundary. Industrial and infrastructure developments are visible through the placement of several pipelines and a local Gravel Pit. Aviation and communication needs are represented by the Crocker Landing Strip and a Radio Tower situated near the summit of Monument Mountain, while the presence of Walnut Spring indicates the vital importance of natural water sources in this dry, upland landscape.
