About this map

Hasete Ranch and Atkinson Ranch anchor this corner of McMullen County, where the landscape is defined by a dendritic network of seasonal creek beds and intermittent water sources. The drainages of Leopard Cr, Elm Cr, and Cow Cr converge across the terrain, interspersed with localized watering points like Red Gate Tank and Hasete Lake. In a region dominated by ranching and large landholdings, transportation is restricted to a few key arteries such as Ranch Road 1962 and FM-624. The presence of the Arrowhead Ranch Airport underscores the vast distances typical of this South Texas brush country, while named landmarks like Devils Waterhole Cr hint at the local topography and the importance of reliable water sources in a semi-arid environment.
