2010 Map of Smithwick

About this map

Lake Travis dominates the center of this landscape, where the Colorado River winds through the Hill Country. The community of Smithwick sits near the confluence of Post Creek and Hickory Creek, serving as a central point for a region defined by its waterway-based ranching and recreation. The map reveals a high density of small family and community burial grounds, including Pangle Cemetery, Richland Cemetery, and Burnam Cemetery, which suggest a long-established rural settlement pattern along the river valleys. Smaller impoundments like Lewis Lake and Bible Lake are found north of the main river channel, while prominent landmarks like Eagle Bluffs and Wildcat Mountain frame the horizon. The presence of Flying X River Ranch Airport and Lakeside Beach Airport indicates the development of residential fly-in communities and recreational access points along the expansive shoreline.
