About this map

Falcon Reservoir defines the western edge of this South Texas landscape, where the waters of the Beckwith Arm meet a network of seasonal arroyos. The settlement of Lopeño sits along the primary highway corridor, while further south, the communities of Falcon, New Falcon, and the New Falcon Colonia concentrate near the Zapata and Starr county line. The terrain is deeply etched by drainage systems like Arroyo del Tigre Grande and Arroyo del Tigre Chiquita, which flow toward the Rio Grande valley. Local roads such as El Tigre Rd and Old Falcon Rd provide access through the brush country, connecting ranch lands and small residential clusters. This area represents a modern layout of the borderlands, balancing established rural communities with the expansive footprint of the international reservoir.
