Albercas Ranch anchors this South Texas landscape where the borders of Webb, Zapata, and Jim Hogg counties meet. The terrain is defined by a network of intermittent watercourses including Aqua Azul Cr, Albercas Cr, and Arroyo Grande, which illustrate the drainage patterns characteristic of the Tamaulipan mezquital. The presence of Albercas de San Felipe Spring indicates the critical role of reliable water sources in this semi-arid ranching country. Transportation is facilitated by a grid of rural routes such as Ranch Rd 649 and Ranch Rd 8030A, while the Jacalon Ranch Airport provides an essential aerial link for this isolated region. This survey captures the enduring ranching footprint and the intricate boundary lines that divide these historic Texas counties.
