About this map

Burns Ranch serves as a central landmark in this portion of La Salle County, situated within a landscape defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainages and creek beds. The drainage pattern is dominated by the Frio River in the northeast corner, which is fed by smaller tributaries including Martin Br. The topography reveals the characteristic brush country of South Texas, where elevation changes are subtle but constant, carved out by the winding paths of Cibolo Cr, Slaughter Cr, and Lewis Cr.

Transportation through this ranching territory is primarily facilitated by Ranch Rd 469, which cuts diagonally across the southern half of the quadrangle. In the northern reaches, Vegara Rd provides access through the undulating terrain. This 2019 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey reflects the modern rural character of the region, where large landholdings and natural waterways remain the primary geographic features.
