1984 Map of View

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Buzzard Mountain and East Peak dominate the northern landscape of this Taylor County region, where the terrain breaks sharply into the prominent Divide. This 1980s provisional survey captures the transition from the high, flat-topped mesas like Round Top Mountain and Cat Heads to the complex drainage networks of Elm Creek and Little Elm Creek. The small community of View sits at a highway junction in the northeast, served by a nearby Cem and characterized by the open ranching and agricultural land typical of the Texas Rolling Plains. Industrial activity is evidenced by a Quarry and Gravel Pit along the roadsides, while travelers during this era would have passed the Roadside Park near the headwaters of Cedar Creek. The map also traces the Callahan county line as it intersects the rugged Lewis Canyon and the winding course of Horse Fall Creek.
