1970 Map of Frio Town NE

About this map

Squirrel Creek and its major tributaries, East Squirrel Creek and West Squirrel Creek, dominate this Medina County landscape as it was documented in 1970. The drainage patterns define the topography of this rural Texas region, where the creeks converge and meander through a series of ridges and draws. Evidence of local industry and infrastructure is sparsely distributed, marked primarily by the presence of several Gravel Pits and an isolated Landing Strip situated on the higher ground between the creek beds. To the east, the terrain is shaped by the presence of Seco Creek and Parkers Creek, illustrating the complex hydrological network of the Frio Town vicinity. Isolated landmarks such as a Drill Hole and occasional wells suggest mineral exploration or water management in this sparsely settled ranching territory.
