1952 Map of La Salle

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The boundary between Jackson Co and Victoria Co is defined by the winding course of Garcitas Creek, a waterway that dominates this 1952 landscape. The settlement of La Salle serves as a small rail-side hub along the Missouri Pacific line, which cuts a straight diagonal across the drainage basins. The area’s economic character is shaped by both ranching and the petroleum industry, evidenced by the presence of a dedicated Oil Field and numerous Flowing Wells scattered near the creek's meandering banks. Irrigation and land management are visible through an extensive network of Levees and scattered Windmills, highlighting the efforts to control the coastal plains. Smaller tributaries like Arenosa Creek, Venado Creek, and the uniquely named Kentucky Mutt Cr feed into the primary channel, creating a complex wetland environment.
