About Lake LBJ
Lake LBJ on the Colorado River northwest of Austin is a constant-level lake of about 6,500 acres and 90 feet, created by Wirtz Dam in 1951 and renamed for Lyndon Johnson in 1965 — his ranch was upstream and he kept a house on the shore. Horseshoe Bay, Kingsland and Granite Shoals are its towns.

Why we cut this one
Lake LBJ is one of the lakes people ask us for by name — the kind of shoreline where the house has a name and the dock has a history. This board is cut from the same depth grid the configurator uses for all 104,419 lakes, so the shape is the real one.Turn it in your hands
