The settlement of Las Tiendas and its surrounding ranchlands anchor this mid-1960s survey of the South Texas brush country in Webb County. The landscape is defined by the intermittent drainages of Santa Isabel Creek and Cochio Creek, which feed into a network of livestock watering holes essential for the regional cattle economy. These features, including Jefferies Tank, Tapon Tank, and La Mula Tank, illustrate the critical importance of water management in this semi-arid environment.
