1970 Map of Pipe Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Pipe Creek and Bandera Falls serve as the primary focal points of this Texas Hill Country survey, which balances rugged uplands with the developing recreation around Medina Lake. The landscape is defined by its water sources, from the deep pools of Wonder Hole to the springs feeding Bear Spring Creek and Spires Creek. Movement through the area is dictated by terrain and river crossings, evidenced by the winding path of English Crossing Road and the prominent Spillway 1064 at the lake's edge. High points like Edwards Mountain and Smoothing Iron Mountain overlook a network of ranch roads, including the descriptively named Bump Gate Road. Local heritage is anchored at the Pipe Creek Cem, while several landing strips indicate the increasing accessibility of these rural ranching lands by the early 1970s.
