1965 Map of Camp Garcia

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The industrial energy landscape of South Texas is on full display in this mid-1960s study of the area near the Starr Co Hidalgo Co line. Dominated by extensive petroleum development, the terrain is marked by a high density of Gas Wells, Oil Wells, and specialized infrastructure including a Compressor Sta and several Pumping Stas. The map reveals the organized extraction efforts within the Rincon Oil Field, Davenport Oil Field, Braulia Oil Field, Yturria Oil Field, and Borosa Oil Field. Away from the derricks, the map identifies local landholdings and small outposts such as Camp Garcia and the Samano Ranch. This survey provides researchers a clear view of the mid-century oil and gas boom as it shaped the rural borderlands, showing the complex network of pipelines and service roads that connected these isolated fields to the larger regional economy.
