1958 Map of La Coste NE

About this map

The boundary between Medina and Bexar Counties runs through this section of central Texas, where a complex network of waterways defines the landscape. The northern portion is characterized by the meandering path of San Geronimo Creek and the beginnings of Medio Creek, which flows southeast across the county line. The terrain rises significantly toward Loma Alta and Culebra Hill, while the lower drainage basins are marked by features like Potranca Creek and Lucas Creek. This 1958 field-checked survey by the Army Map Service reveals a territory largely defined by its natural topography rather than dense urbanization. The sparse labeling of individual wells suggests a landscape focused on ranching or land management in the mid-century, while the branching systems of Big Sous Creek and Little Sous Creek illustrate the natural watershed patterns of the region west of San Antonio.
