2013 Map of McCampbell Ranch

About this map

Mc Campbell Ranch and its surrounding pastoral landscape define this area of Jim Hogg County, characterized by a sophisticated network of named water sources essential for South Texas ranching. The landscape is defined by its drainages, including Arroyo de Magueyes and Arroyo del Gato, which are supported by numerous scattered windmills named for local families and landmarks. These include Georgies Windmill, Martinez Windmill, and the San Francisco Windmill. The presence of Cuatro de Julio Windmill and La Loma Windmill suggests a deep-rooted cultural connection to the land and its specific topography. This survey shows the region's reliance on these vital water points, connected by a web of rural routes like El Comal Rd and Ranch Road 1017, illustrating the infrastructure required to sustain life and livestock in the brush country.
