2012 Map of Smithwick

About this map

Lake Travis dominates the southern landscape of this Texas Hill Country quadrangle, where the winding Colorado River basin meets the rugged uplands of Burnet County. The settlement of Smithwick serves as a local focal point, surrounded by a terrain defined by deep-cutting tributaries like Sycamore Cr and Post Cr. For family historians, the sheet is particularly dense with small burial grounds, including Pleasant Valley Cem, Richland Cem, and Burnam Cem, which are scattered among the ranch lands. The presence of Flying X River Ranch Airport and Lakeside Beach Airport highlights the mix of traditional rural life and modern recreational development along the water's edge. Notable landmarks such as Wildcat Mtn and the Eagle Bluffs overlook the complex hydrology of Lewis Lake and Double Horn Cr.
