2022 Map of Indio

About this map

The Rio Grande serves as the international boundary for this desert landscape in Presidio County, marking the border between the United States and Mexico. The small settlement of Indio sits along the FM 170 corridor, flanked by drainages like Arroyo Borracho and Las Corrientes Cr. This 2022 survey documents a sparsely populated ranching territory where local genealogy is anchored by sites like the Indio Ranch Cem and the Spencer Cem. To the southeast, the terrain shifts near the settlement of Ochoa, where Spencer Cr makes its way toward the river. The road network, including El Campito Ranch Rd and Rio Bravo Rd, reflects the modern pastoral life and land management of the Big Bend region, preserving the names of the families and ranching operations that have shaped this borderland.
