About this map

Santa Fe Ranch and Los Indios Ranch anchor a landscape defined by ranching and energy extraction in this part of Hidalgo County. The terrain is crisscrossed by an extensive network of ranch roads and fenced divisions, including San Juan Pasture. This 2010 survey highlights the vital infrastructure of the South Texas brush country, where numerous named water sources like the Noche Buena Windmill, Tres Lagunas Windmill, and Agua Dulce Windmill sustain the cattle operations.

Subsurface mineral interests are evident through the Bearline Gas Field and Los Indios Gas Field, illustrating the economic duality of the region. Many landmarks carry family and descriptive names such as Hermanas Windmill and Potrero Windmill, which are essential points of reference for local land management and genealogy. The map provides a clear look at the large-scale property boundaries and remote operations common in this region during the early twenty-first century.
