1956 Map of Los Fresnos

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Palo Alto Battlefield anchors the southern landscape of this coastal Texas survey, marked by an Historical Monument and the Soldiers Cem. The terrain is defined by a complex network of resacas—ancient distributary channels of the Rio Grande—including Resaca de los Fresnos and Resaca de los Cuates. These winding waterways cut through a transition from agricultural ranchlands to the saline marshes of the Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge.
