About this map

The Guadalupe River snakes through this coastal prairie landscape, defining a complex network of wetlands and bayous south of Victoria. Significant industrial and agricultural water management is evident in the presence of the Dupont Cooling Basin and the Lipscomb and Son Reservoir. The settlement of Bloomington serves as the primary population center, laid out in a grid pattern and surrounded by vast drainage features like Black Bayou and Blue Bayou.

Cultural landmarks and transportation routes highlight the area's local history and development. The San Jose Cem sits near the river's edge, while Dalton Bridge provides a key crossing point. Smaller communities like Dernal and Dacosta are linked by a network of rural roads, including FM 404 and the Old Bloomington Rd, which cut across the flat terrain of Pickering Basin and the surrounding marshlands.
