Los Muertos Pasture and several large livestock management areas define this section of Brooks County, reflecting a landscape dominated by the ranching heritage of South Texas. This 2016 survey highlights a sparse network of ranch roads and specialized features like the Barroso Trap, an enclosure designed for corralling cattle in open country. The terrain is marked by gradual elevation changes and seasonal water features, including Barroso Pasture and Patricio Pasture. These divisions provide insight into the historical property lines and traditional land-use patterns common in the Rio Grande Plain, where named pastures often carry the legacy of family ownership or specific local events.
