2022 Map of Las Ovejas Creek

About this map

Las Ovejas Cr meanders through this portion of Zapata County, defining a landscape shaped by intermittent drainage and rural ranching infrastructure. This arid terrain is marked by a network of seasonal watercourses including El Jaral Cr, Cavasara Cr, and Mulato Cr, which feed into larger systems like Dos Arroyos. Human presence is evidenced primarily by named ranch roads and the Garza Ests settlement in the southwest corner. The prevalence of features like Tasa Tank highlights the importance of water management in this South Texas environment, where livestock and land use depend on these localized reservoirs. Transportation is facilitated by a grid of secondary routes, notably Ranch Rd 3169 and Louis Munoz Rd, providing access to the remote holdings that characterize this borderlands region.
