2019 Map of Fitzpatrick Hollow

About this map

The Nueces River winds through this rural stretch of McMullen County, defining a landscape of ranch lands and drainages south of the Kings Hills. The topography is marked by several significant catchment features and basins, including Brown Lake and the Mustang Tank in the southeast. Transportation in the area relies on named ranch roads such as Whitehurst Ranch Rd and Lowe Ranch Rd, which connect the disparate cattle operations and private holdings characteristic of this South Texas region. The presence of the Arrowhead Ranch Airport near River St suggests the importance of private aviation in managing these large territorial tracts. Waterways like Leopard Cr and Canyon Cr feed into the river system, creating a network of seasonal draws and hollows, most notably Fitzpatrick Hollow and Lagrand Hollow, that shape the local drainage patterns.
