2013 Map of Live Oak Creek

About this map

Live Oak Creek and its tributaries carve a complex drainage network across this South Texas landscape in Webb County. The region is defined by a sparse settlement pattern typical of the brush country, where the F B Ashe ranching interest or homestead stands as a solitary named landmark. The hydrology of the area is particularly noteworthy, featuring the seasonal Saline Lake and a series of winding waterways including Chucareto Creek, Tecolate Creek, and the southern Dolores Creek. These creek systems, along with Los Olmos Creek in the east, illustrate the natural water sources critical to the local cattle industry and land management in this arid portion of the state.
