About this map

The irrigated landscape of the Lower Rio Grande Valley centers on La Feria in the mid-1950s, where a complex network of canals and elevated ditches supports a thriving agricultural economy. This survey documents the transition between the Hidalgo and Cameron County line, showcasing how the terrain is dominated by water management features like the La Feria Reservoir and the Valley Acres Reservoir. Significant topographic markers include the extensive Tiocano Lake Bed and the winding course of the Arroyo Colorado at the southern edge of the quadrangle.
