2010 Map of Hacienda

About this map

The Nueces River winds through this South Texas landscape, defining a terrain of isolated summits and ranching history in the years before 2010. Significant topographical landmarks like Cantrell Mountain, Sulphur Mountain, and Weymiller Butte rise above the surrounding country, while the drainage of Wood Slough and Turkey Creek feeds into the river system. The settlement pattern is characterized by established cattle operations, including Rosenow Ranch, Ingrum Ranch, and Smythe Ranch. Water management is central to the area's utility, evidenced by features such as Smyth Dam and Big Tank. Near the State Highway 3 Bridge, the terrain transitions toward Nueces Hill and the small community of Hacienda at the northern edge. The map also identifies local resources such as Soldiers Camp Springs, providing a detailed view of the water sources and landholdings essential to life in this part of Uvalde County.
