2010 Map of Flying W Ranch

About this map

The Nueces River winds through this South Texas landscape in La Salle County, anchoring a terrain defined by ranching life and riparian hydrology. Large landholdings like the Flying W Ranch and Riche Ranch mark the region's agricultural character, served by a network of rural routes including Valley Wells Rd and La Quebrada Ranch Rd. Several seasonal waterways, such as Sauz Mocho Creek, San Roque Creek, and Espio Creek, drain toward the river basin. The presence of Ritchie Dam on the river indicates the essential role of water management in this arid environment, supporting local ranching operations and livestock during the early twenty-first century.
