1971 Map of Ray Lake

About this map

The South Llano River carves a winding path through this portion of Edwards County, where the landscape is defined by its drainage systems and ranching infrastructure. At the center of local activity is the Baker Ranch, which features a private Landing Strip and proximity to Ray Lake. This 1971 survey illustrates the rural economic character of the region, balancing traditional livestock water sources like the Cloudt Waterhole with modern industrial developments, including a Pipeline and scattered resource extraction sites such as a Gravel Pit, Gas Well, and Drill Hole. The terrain is deeply etched by significant geographic features like Cloudt Draw and McKenzie Draw, which dictate the placement of local roads and property boundaries in this arid Texas environment.
