1972 Map of La Gloria SW

About this map

The arid landscape of Starr County, Texas, is defined by the critical infrastructure of water and resource extraction during the early 1970s. This ranching territory relies on scattered water sources such as the Borrachito Windmill, Benedito Windmill, and the Charco del Rucio Tank, which are essential for livestock in this semi-desert environment. El Negro Ranch stands as a primary hub of activity in a region characterized by sparse settlement and wide-open rangeland.
