2010 Map of Big Apache Hill
USGS Topo · Published 2010About this map
Big Apache Hill and its smaller counterpart, Little Apache Hill, dominate this portion of the South Texas landscape where the international border follows the winding course of the Rio Grande. The map documents the persistent ranching culture of Webb County, marking localized developments such as Cuatralvo Ranch and Apache Ranch. Water management in this semi-arid environment is evidenced by features like the North Apache Ranch Lake Dam and South Apache Ranch Lake Dam, which capture runoff from seasonal drainages including San Cirilo Creek and Espada Creek. This 2010 survey illustrates the sparsely populated borderlands, where the boundary between the United States of America and Estados Unidos Mexicanos is defined by the shifting riverbed rather than a straight surveyor's line.
