About this map

Gallina Slough and Childers Slough dominate this South Texas landscape, carving intricate drainage patterns through the brush country of Zavala County. The topography is defined by its water management, evidenced by the numerous catchment points such as Cow Hill Tank, Indio Tank, and Saladillo Tank that dot the ranch lands. These features speak to the region's long-standing reliance on seasonal water sources and managed tanks to support cattle and local wildlife in a semi-arid climate.

Local genealogy and history are preserved at the eastern edge of the quadrangle, where Saint Patrick Cem and Edgewood - Woodlawn Cem sit near the junction of several rural routes. The road network, including Ranch Rd 117 and River Route Rd, provides the primary infrastructure connecting these remote holdings. From the banks of Tortuga Cr to the reaches of Rock Quarry Cr, the map documents a terrain primarily dedicated to large-scale ranching and rural transit.
