2016 Map of Las Ovejas Creek

About this map

Las Ovejas Creek defines this reach of the South Texas brush country, winding through a landscape of ranching infrastructure and intermittent watercourses. In this Zapata County quadrant, several family-named landmarks suggest the long-standing ranching heritage of the region, including Fred Bruni Rd and the managed waters of L E Bruni Lake Number 3 and L E Bruni Lake Number 4. The small settlement of Dos Arroyos sits on the eastern edge of the survey, where the drainages of Mulato Cr and other tributaries converge. Navigational arteries like Ranch Rd 3169 and Louis Munoz Rd provide access through the arid terrain, which is punctuated by essential water resources such as Tasa Tank. The presence of Garza Ests along the southern boundary reflects the gradual shift from large-scale ranching toward smaller rural land holdings.
