About this map

Seco Mines anchors the southwestern portion of this Maverick County landscape, where residential development begins to meet the brush country of South Texas. The area is defined by an intricate network of named drainage systems and stock tanks, reflecting the vital importance of water management in this semi-arid environment. Key waterways like Elm Cr, Picosa Cr, and Rosita Cr carve through the terrain, while man-made features such as King Tank, Taylor Lake, and George Tank punctuate the ranchlands.

Prominent local elevations like Deadmans Hill, Consuelo Hill, and Chapotal Hill provide navigational landmarks across the undulating plains. The street plan of the Seco Mines colonia features a distinct naming convention based on wildlife and local flora, including Deer Run Blvd, Antelope Dr, and Agarita Dr. This 2016 survey also documents the intersection of rural life and water infrastructure, visible in the path of Lateral Twentyone and numerous secondary roads like Thompson Rd.
