1969 Map of Loma Alta NW

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The U S Naval Reservation dominates the northwest corner of this South Texas landscape, defined by an Observation Tower and Control Tower overlooking the brush country. This 1969 survey captures McMullen County as a mosaic of large ranching operations and essential water management features. Scattered livestock tanks, many bearing family or descriptive names like Miles Ranch, Cicero Tank, and the curiously named Dinosaur Tank, underscore the vital role of water in this semi-arid environment.
