2003 Map of Caiman Creek

About this map

Nueces River drainage patterns define this landscape in South Texas, where a complex network of waterways including Caiman Creek, Los Olmos Creek, and Chupadero Creek converge. The terrain is characterized by broad brush country and scrub, punctuated by the distinct elevation of Monte Cortado. Local history is anchored by the Fort Ewell Historical Monument situated near the riverbanks, marking the site of a mid-19th-century frontier outpost. The map reveals a land utilized for both historical preservation and modern industry, shown through various Gravel pits and several specialized landing sites like the Heliport and multiple soft-surface airfields. The boundary between La Salle Co and Webb Co runs through the southern portion of the survey, crossing over Live Oak Creek and Dolores Creek in an area primarily defined by large ranch holdings and natural hydrology.
