2010 Map of Chalk Bluff

About this map

Haby Crossing serves as a central landmark in this Uvalde County landscape, where the Nueces River winds through a terrain defined by extensive ranching operations and natural drainage draws. The map illustrates a pattern of large landholdings typical of South Texas, including the Haby Ranch, Bird Springs Ranch, and Lewis Ranch. These properties are interconnected by rural routes like H C R 33 and Co RD 405, reflecting the logistical needs of a cattle-ranching economy. Near the northern boundary, Camp Chalk Bluff and the namesake Chalk Bluff overlook the river, while numerous seasonal watercourses such as Elm Slough and Perfecto Mata Draw score the countryside. The convergence of the West Nueces River with the main branch further downstream highlights the area's vital hydrological network within an arid environment.
