1893 Map of Rock Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1916

About this map

Rock Springs serves as the focal point of this late 19th-century survey, situated at the headwaters of a complex network of draws and creeks on the Texas Edwards Plateau. The landscape is defined by the high-elevation ranching culture of Edwards, Sutton, and Kimble counties, where water is the primary arbiter of settlement. The map reveals a frontier economy tethered to vital water sources such as Eight Mile Water Hole, Ten Mile Water Hole, and McKenzie Lake.
