1972 Map of La Pryor SE

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Nueces River meanders through this portion of Zavala County, its path marked by significant water management and ranching infrastructure including the Upper Dam. To the west, the Missouri Pacific railroad runs parallel to Highway 83, passing through the small settlement of Zacate in the northern section of the map. This landscape is defined by its transition from riparian corridors along Sand Creek and Cambalache Creek to the industrial utility of the southern fields. Numerous Oil Wells and a Gas Well indicate the energy extraction occurring in the early 1970s, while a network of named stock tanks such as Gulf Tank, Franklin Tank, and Carper Tank reflect the area's grazing history. A remote Landing Strip and multiple pipelines further illustrate the mix of agricultural and industrial development in this South Texas region.
