1982 Map of Asherton NW

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Peña Creek and Penitas Creek converge in this arid portion of Dimmit County, shaping a landscape defined by seasonal watercourses and ranching infrastructure. Based on 1970s field data, the map reveals a network of water management features essential for livestock in South Texas, such as Big Tank, Gamer Tank, and Fish Tank. These tanks, alongside Carrizo Creek and Barrosa Creek, illustrate the topographic reliance on intermittent drainage in the Brush Country. A lonely Landing Strip and a scattering of unimproved roads indicate the area's remote character and the practical needs of large-scale landholdings. Further south, El Morito Creek winds through the terrain, highlighting the drainage patterns toward the Rio Grande basin.
