About this map

Chimeneas Cr and Saus Cr define the intermittent drainage patterns of this South Texas landscape northeast of Eagle Pass. The terrain is marked by a network of ranch roads and ephemeral water sources, such as the distinctly named Xmas Tank. Bisecting the quadrangle from northwest to southeast is the path of Highway 277, providing the primary transport corridor through this sparsely populated section of Maverick County. Smaller seasonal tributaries including Chueco Cr and Mule Cr further illustrate the watershed of the Rio Grande basin, where the land use remains predominantly focused on expansive ranching operations and resource management as of the early 21st century.
