About this map

The Telegraph settlement sits along the South Llano River in this part of the Texas Hill Country where the plateau begins to break into steep draws and hollows. The landscape is defined by the river’s winding course and its numerous tributaries, including Salina Cr and Little Paint Cr. Natural water sources are abundant here, with Seven Hundred Springs and Tanner Springs emerging from the limestone.

Evidence of established family ranching is found throughout the terrain, marked by Wooten Cem and Paint Creek Cem. The road network reflects private landholdings and ranch access, with named routes like Peter Rabbit Rd, Stevenson Ranch Rd, and McLean Ranch Rd threading through canyons such as Ford Canyon and Telegraph Canyon. The boundary between Kimble Co and Edwards Co cuts across the southern portion of the map, dividing a region shaped by its spring-fed hydrology and the winding S Llano River.
