About this map

Chargos Cr winds through this Zapata County landscape, defining a terrain of intermittent streams and managed water resources essential to South Texas ranching. The map centers on a network of drainage systems like Taquache Cr and Mulato Cr that converge toward the Rio Grande valley. Land use is clearly marked by the presence of numerous tanks, including Rodriguez Tank, Llano Tank, and Compañia Tank, which serve as vital water collection points in this arid region.

Transportation is minimal, anchored by Fred Bruni Rd in the northwest corner near Fred M Bruni Lake Number 2. The distribution of named features like Walker Lake and Porvenir Ranch Lake suggests the historical importance of specific ranch holdings and family names in the local geography. This 2022 survey provides a detailed record of the hydrography and infrastructure supporting the rural economy between the communities of Zapata and Randado.
