2022 Map of Fitzpatrick Hollow

About this map

The Nueces River meanders across this McMullen County landscape, creating a complex drainage network defined by the Old River and numerous tributaries such as Leopard Cr and Canyon Creek. The topography is shaped by the Kings Hills to the north and the deep incision of Fitzpatrick Hollow. This area reflects the remote, ranch-dominated character of South Texas, where connectivity is maintained through named private thoroughfares like Lowe Ranch Rd and Whitehurst Ranch Rd. Human activity is concentrated around scattered landmarks including the Arrowhead Ranch Airport and water resources like Brown Lake and Mustang Tank. The landscape's configuration highlights the critical importance of riparian corridors and managed water points in this semi-arid environment.
