1952 Map of Blessing SE

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The low-lying coastal prairies of Matagorda County are defined here by a complex network of wetlands and hydraulic engineering. The Colorado River meanders through the eastern portion of the map, creating large landforms like Selkirk Island and Wild Cow Island, while the West Branch Colorado River further bifurcates the terrain. Extensive levee systems and an abandoned canal indicate a landscape heavily modified for water management and flood control.
