2022 Map of Cuevitas SW

About this map

San Juan Cr and Chico Cr weave through this section of the South Texas brush country, where the borders of Jim Hogg, Zapata, and Starr Counties converge. The landscape is primarily defined by ranching infrastructure and a network of private and local roads that cross the drainage basins of Las Escobas Cr and Remadura de Charco Largo Cr. Significant landmarks such as El Tecolote Ranch Rd and Loma Blanca Rd provide geographic orientation in an area characterized by scattered homesteads and expansive rangeland. The presence of Multi Shot Rd and El Tecolote Rd suggests the continued importance of land access for local industry and agricultural operations. This 2022 survey offers a precise record of the modern rural road systems and ephemeral watercourses that have historically shaped settlement patterns in this part of the Rio Grande Valley hinterlands.
