About this map

The boundary between Brooks and Jim Hogg counties defines the eastern edge of this South Texas landscape, where the seasonal waters of Arroyo los Palos Baluarte and Baluarte Creek carve through the brush country. This 1972 field-checked survey reveals an economy and way of life centered on cattle ranching and resource extraction. The map is punctuated by an extensive network of named water sources essential for livestock, including Buenos Aires Windmill, Los Caballos Windmill, and Jaboncillo Windmill.
