1980 Map of Alamito Creek NE

About this map

Becerra Creek and its many winding tributaries define the topography of this Webb County landscape as it appeared in 1980. This area of South Texas shows clear evidence of late-twentieth-century industrial activity, with several Oil Well sites, a Drill Hole, and numerous storage Tanks scattered across the undulating terrain. A remote Landing Strip and various pipelines suggest the infrastructure required to service these dispersed petroleum operations. The map also features the crossing of Salado Creek and several isolated water tanks or small reservoirs like Pintas, which are critical features in this arid brushland environment. These small-scale modifications to the land reflect a period of intensive resource extraction and ranching utility typical of the region's rural development during the era.
