About this map

Billings Cem and the small settlement of Las Hermanas anchor this portion of the South Texas brush country along the border of Webb and Duval counties. The landscape is defined by its arid-land water management, featuring several catchment basins such as Charo Tank, Home Tank, and Middle Tank that support the local ranching economy.

Drainage is dominated by the winding course of Mesquitoso Cr in the north and the upper reaches of Parrilla Cr S in the southeast. Transportation through this sparsely populated region relies on a network of rural roads including FM 2050 and Mills Bennett Rd, which facilitate movement between private ranch holdings. This 2022 survey provides a clear view of contemporary land divisions and the vital infrastructure of tanks and creeks essential for life in this part of the state.
