About this map

Falcon Reservoir and the meandering course of the Rio Grande define this border landscape in South Texas, where the international boundary between the United States of America and Estados Unidos Mexicanos follows the river's path. The terrain is characterized by a network of drainage systems including Arroyo Clareño, Arroyo Leon, and Arroyo Cabeza de Vaca, which cut through the brush country toward the reservoir's edge.

Settlement patterns in this 2022 survey are sparse, centered around the community of Green Valley and various ranching operations. Significant local history sites include Garcia Cem and Los Alejandrenas Cem, which serve as permanent markers of family heritage in this rural region. The map also captures infrastructure like El Clareno Ranch Rd and distinct water features such as Beckwith Arm and El Rancho Tank, reflecting the essential nature of water management in this arid ranching environment.
