Falcon Reservoir dominates the western edge of this South Texas landscape, where the international boundary meets the brush country of Zapata County. The settlement of Siesta Shores sits near the northern shoreline, connected by a network of local roads such as Weslaco Ln and Mesa Salinas Rd. Further inland to the southeast, Alejandrenas anchors a region defined by seasonal drainages and livestock infrastructure, including El Rancho Tank and Juanes Tank. This 2012 survey illustrates a landscape of large ranch holdings and dispersed communities, where family heritage is anchored at sites like Garcia Cem. The terrain rises from the reservoir flats toward Green Valley and Loma Blanca, carved by several prominent arroyos, including Arroyo Leon, Arroyo Melones, and the namesake Arroyo Clareño.
