USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Artesian wells and shifting dunes define this South Texas landscape along the shores of Baffin Bay. The map reveals a sophisticated ranching infrastructure focused on water access, with family-named sources like Santiago Artesian Well, Mota Negra Artesian Well, and the Santiago Artesian Well scattered across the arid terrain. Large cattle operations center on La Parra Ranch and Los Indios Ranch, separated by miles of private fencing and a network of windmills.
