1966 Map of Walnut Springs West

About this map

Flat Top Ranch dominates the landscape of the northern Bosque country in the mid-1960s, showing an extensive network of private water management and aviation infrastructure. The terrain is defined by the convergence of the East Bosque River and the North Bosque River, with numerous artificial impoundments like Irrigation Lake and Old Lake supporting the ranching operations. To the east, the settlement of Walnut Springs sits along a rail corridor marked as abandoned, indicating the shift away from the old railroad economy that once sustained these small Texas towns.
