Nunley Lake and Traylor Lake Number 2 sit as rare permanent water points in this arid reach of the Rio Grande basin in Webb County. The landscape is defined by the winding drainage systems of Becerra Cr and Salado Cr, which cut through the undulating brush country typical of south Texas. Access to this territory is primarily limited to a network of local thoroughfares including Ranch Rd 863 in the north and the intersection of Becerra Rd and Gallaghan Rd in the southwest corner. The 2019 survey illustrates a vast, sparsely populated area where the placement of small lakes and creek beds likely indicates long-standing ranching operations and natural water collection sites in an otherwise dry environment.
