1971 Map of Ray Lake SW

About this map

Davis Cave sits within the drainage of the West Nueces River, characterizing this Edwards County landscape in the early 1970s. The map illustrates a primarily ranching and resource-based economy, defined by scattered water Tanks and multiple Gravel Pits used for local infrastructure and road maintenance. The presence of a private Landing Strip suggests the logistical importance of aviation in this isolated portion of the Texas Hill Country, where rugged relief separates the river valley from Geronimo Creek. The detailed contour lines reveal the winding canyon paths and limestone geography typical of the Edwards Plateau, capturing a moment before late-century land-use changes altered the area's rural character.
