About this map

Energy production and cattle ranching shape the landscape of this Frio County region in the mid-1960s. The Big Foot Gas Field and Big Foot Oil Field dominate the southern portion of the sheet, marked by a dense network of pipelines and service roads. The Missouri Pacific railroad cuts a straight diagonal across the northern terrain, passing through the Medina Co Frio Co boundary and serving the localized gravel operations. Waterways such as San Miguel Creek and Chacon Creek provide the primary drainage for the area's brushy ranchlands. Genealogists will find historical markers of early settlement at Moore Cem and Longview Cem, while the singular elevation of Ghost Hill stands as a prominent local landmark amidst the rolling draws and numerous wells.
