1967 Map of Smithwick

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Colorado River carves a deep, winding course through this Burnet County landscape, defining the character of Smithwick and the surrounding Hill Country. In the late 1960s, the water levels of Travis Lake were established at a normal pool elevation of 681 feet, creating the intricate shoreline seen at Turkey Bend and near Eagle Bluffs. The map reveals a high density of family and community burial grounds, including Richland Cem, Burnam Cem, and Pangle Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research in this rural Texas region. Significant landmarks like Camp Peniel and the Landing Strip near the river signify the area's development for recreation and local transport. The terrain is marked by numerous seasonal drainages such as Hamilton Creek and Post Oak Creek that feed into the main river system below Wildcat Mountain.
