About this map

Large grazing tracts and pasture lands define this segment of the Rio Grande Valley hinterlands in Hidalgo County. The landscape is structured around extensive ranching parcels, including Santa Fe Pasture and La Copita Pasture in the western half, and Julian Pasture to the northeast. This pattern of land use reflects the historical ranching economy of the South Texas brush country, where large acreage is managed for livestock and wildlife. The primary corridor for travel and commerce through this open country is Highway 281, which runs nearly north-to-south along the western edge. Other named tracts like Mula Pasture and Los Machos Pasture illustrate the division of the terrain into traditional pastures that have long anchored the local agricultural identity.
