About this map

The Blanco River and Little Blanco River define the winding drainage patterns of this Texas Hill Country terrain near the intersections of Blanco, Hays, and Comal counties. The landscape is marked by distinctive geological features such as The Narrows and the Greens Hollow basin, reflecting the area's complex hydrology. Rural settlement is anchored by the Payton Cem and the small communities of Blanco Landing and The Cove.

Private aviation and ranching operations are prominent, notably the Pippen-York Ranch Airport in the northwest. Traditional water sources remain significant landmarks on the sheet, including Boardhouse Springs and Boardhouse Cr. The network of ranch and farm roads, such as Ranch Rd 165 and FM 32, illustrates the modern connectivity of these sprawling landholdings while following the natural contours of the river valleys.
