About this map

Clint and the surrounding agricultural bottomlands of the Upper Rio Grande valley are defined here by a sophisticated network of irrigation and drainage canals. Surveyed in 1939, this landscape illustrates the intensive water management required for farming along the Rio Grande, where features like the Franklin Canal and San Elizario Drain crisscross the valley floor. The dual presence of the Texas and Southern Pacific and Texas and New Orleans railroads through Fabens and Cuadrilla highlights the importance of rail transit for moving goods from these borderland settlements.
