2016 Map of Steen Lake

About this map

Steen Lake and Lost Lake are the defining water features on this portion of the Edwards Plateau, where the land is carved by long drainage paths like Eightmile Draw. This 2016 survey illustrates the remote ranching infrastructure of Sutton County, characterized by a vast network of private tracks such as Pvt Rd 3340 and Pvt Rd 3373 that navigate the undulating terrain. The cattle-ranching heritage of the region is evident in the layout of the large land parcels and the occasional thoroughfares like Ranch Rd 3130. These features, along with Bull Hollow in the southeast, show how the local landscape dictates the placement of roads and the use of the land for agricultural purposes.
