About this map

The Fort Hood Military Reservation dominates this 1947 survey of Coryell County, illustrating the transformation of central Texas ranch land into a sprawling defense complex. In the northern reaches, the North Fort Hood cantonment area features an organized grid of structures and a Landing Strip near the banks of the Leon River. The terrain is defined by high points like Dalton Mountain and Henson Mountain, which are interspersed with numerous military training zones including the Gatesville Ranges, Turnover Ranges, and Tamal Ranges.
