1986 Map of Pace Bend

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Lake Travis dominates this Texas Hill Country landscape, where the winding course of the Colorado River creates a series of dramatic peninsulas including Muleshoe Bend, Gloster Bend, and Post Oak Bend. By the mid-1980s, the development of Lago Vista on the eastern shore contrasts with the recreational and rural character of the western banks. The map documents significant public land use at Pace Bend Park and the Bergstrom AFB Rec Area, serving military personnel during the late Cold War era. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet preserves the locations of Haynie Flats Cem and Fall Creek Cem, alongside vestiges of older transportation routes like the Old Ferry Road and a designated Pack Trail. The confluence of the Pedernales River and several smaller tributaries such as Cat Creek and Fall Creek underscores the complex riparian geography of the Travis and Burnet county line.
