2013 Map of Charco Marrano Creek

About this map

Nueces River winds through this South Texas landscape, creating a riparian corridor that serves as the focal point for local landholdings such as the Black Ranch. The terrain is defined by the convergence of several drainages, including the perennial path of Charco Marrano Cr and the intermittent flow of Las Raices Cr. Transportation across this section of La Salle County is facilitated by a network of ranch-to-market routes, including Ranch Road 3408, Fm-469, and Fm-624. The map illustrates the sprawling nature of Texas ranching at the start of the 21st century, where large-scale property boundaries and water access dictate the placement of roads and homesteads.
