1893 Map of Rock Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The Edwards Plateau ranching landscape of the 1890s is defined here by a network of isolated homesteads and essential water sources across Sutton, Kimble, and Edwards counties. Settlers established operations near seasonal and permanent waters, including Eight Mile Water Hole, Ten Mile Water Hole, and McKenzie Lake, reflecting the critical importance of hydrology in this semi-arid environment. The town of Rock Springs serves as the primary hub in the south, while the northern reaches are dominated by family-named holdings like Stegalls Ranch and Wentworth Ranch.
