2022 Map of Briscoe Ranch

About this map

The La Salle Co McMullen Co line bisects this landscape, marking a rural South Texas terrain dominated by ephemeral drainages and a network of named stock tanks. Water management is the primary defining feature of the area, as seen in the distribution of seasonal catchments like Big Alamo Tank and the smaller Little Alamo Tank. The naming conventions reflect a deep cultural history, with labels such as Tanque Las Tres Puertas, Tanque Escondido, and Tanque Noche Triste suggesting a long-standing Spanish and Mexican ranching influence. The presence of Oil Wells Tank indicates the intersection of traditional cattle ranching with the region's energy resources. Development is minimal, centered on isolated ranch infrastructure like Headquarters Tank and connected by unpaved corridors such as Cameron Ln and Martin Rd.
