About this map

The vast ranching country of Live Oak County is defined by a sparse network of county roads and vital water infrastructure. Large-scale livestock operations such as Lyne Ranch, Iley Ranch, and Daugherty Ranch dominate the terrain, supported by dozens of named windmills that serve as critical landmarks in this semi-arid landscape. Notable among these are the uniquely named Piggly Wiggly Windmill, Jack West Windmill, and Muerto Windmill.

Ephemeral watercourses like Hill Creek, Spring Creek, and Ramirena Creek carve through the land, supplemented by stock tanks such as Marcou Tank and Dino Tank. These water sources and windmills dictate the placement of local thoroughfares like Dougherty Ranch Rd and Co Rd 144, illustrating the fundamental reliance on water for settlement and industry in southern Texas at the dawn of the 21st century.
