About this map

County Engineer W. O. Washington and local commissioners contributed data to this 1930s coastal survey of the Rio Grande Valley, revealing a complex landscape of tidal flats and low-lying lomas. The map is dominated by the expansive Bahia Grande and San Martin Lake, water bodies separated by a series of narrow ridges and crossings such as Carretas Crossing and La Atra Crossing. The settlement at Laguna Vista sits near the shores of Laguna Madre, while the small community of Escoes is situated further inland along the State Highway No 100.
