About this map

Nueces River watercourses dominate this South Texas landscape, carving through a series of hollows and creek beds in McMullen County. The terrain is characterized by topographical transitions from the Kings Hills in the north down to the riparian zones of Canyon Cr and Richardson Cr. Family ranching legacies are imprinted on the land through long-established transit routes such as Lowe Ranch Rd, Wheeler Ranch Rd, and Whitehurst Ranch Rd, reflecting the area's enduring pastoral economy. Modern infrastructure is represented by the Arrowhead Ranch Airport located near the southern boundary. Significant water management features like Big Tank, Mustang Tank, and Brown Lake indicate the critical importance of water storage for livestock in this semi-arid region, while the Old River label suggests an abandoned channel or historical shift in the river's path.
