About this map

Boultinghouse Mtn and Bald Mtn rise above a landscape defined by the winding drainages of the Texas Hill Country, where the borders of Burnet, Travis, and Williamson counties converge. This 2022 survey captures the area as the waters of the Colorado River expand into Lake Travis, creating a complex shoreline near Lago Vista. The settlement at Travis Peak remains a focal point for researchers interested in the rural history of the Balcones Escarpment region.

Local genealogy is well-represented by family landmarks and small burial sites like Heine Cem and Hansel Cem. The map traces a network of watercourses including Cow Cr, Bee Cr, and Sulphur Cr, which have historically dictated the placement of roads like Co RD 328 and the expansion of residential developments. Named features such as Negrohead and Chalk Knob serve as traditional navigational markers across this dissected plateau.
