About this map

Peeler Ranch and Brown Ranch anchor this landscape in Atascosa County, defined by a network of ephemeral waterways and cattle tanks. The drainage system is particularly dense, with La Parita Cr and Turkey Cr carving paths through the brush country. These intermittent streams are supported by numerous named tanks and reservoirs, such as Caballos Tank and Lewis Tank, which are essential for livestock in this semi-arid region.

Modern infrastructure is represented by the 74 Ranch Airport and the intersection of Ranch Road 791 with local routes like Co Rd 420. The map also captures named property holdings like Mrs Poenich, reflecting the enduring importance of private land ownership and ranching heritage. This survey provides a clear view of the rural South Texas economy, where water management and transportation routes define the settlement patterns of the early 21st century.
