2016 Map of Zephyr

About this map

Zephyr serves as the central hub of this Central Texas landscape, where the local economy and topography are deeply intertwined with water management and ranching. The map reveals an extensive system of water conservation, including the Brownwood Lateral Watershed Number 20 and Soil Conservation Service Site 8 Reservoir, highlighting the era's focus on agricultural sustainability and flood control along the Pecan Bayou drainage. Local history is anchored by the Zephyr Cem and Jenkins Cem, while the rugged relief of Lancaster Hill overlooks the winding paths of Double Cr and Bee Br. The boundary between Brown County and Mills County cuts across the southeast, marking a transition in local jurisdiction near the waters of Ashton Lake and Blanket Cr.
