1980 Map of Blancas Creek North

About this map

Dolores Creek and Lobo Creek dominate this South Texas landscape in Webb County, where the topography is defined by seasonal water drainage and early energy infrastructure. Surveyed in the mid-1970s, the terrain reveals a sparse but deliberate network of cattle fences and utility pipelines that cross the brush country. The presence of a localized well in the northwest corner highlights the ongoing importance of groundwater and resource extraction in this arid ranching environment. The mapping of Blancas Creek in the southeast provides a clear look at the natural hydrology of the area before modern large-scale development altered the rural character of the region.
