1965 Map of Los Ebanos NW

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Rio Grande defines the international boundary in this 1965 survey, documenting a dynamic section of the river where the United States and Mexico border remains subject to the water’s shifting course. A prominent feature on the northern bank is Valadeces Banco No 130, a topographic formation that illustrates the complex land management and boundary issues common in the river valley. The landscape is marked by several locations of a Well, indicating the critical role of groundwater for the remote outposts and ranching operations in this arid stretch of Texas and Tamaulipas. This map represents a moment when the International Boundary and Water Commission was actively monitoring river changes, noting that the boundary line was not completely defined at the time due to recent fluvial activity.
