1940 Map of Mogotes Hill
USGS Topo · Published 1940About this map
The brush country of Zapata County reveals a landscape defined by ranching and the early Texas oil boom in this 1940 revision. Family-held landholdings like Trinidad Ranch and Buena Vista Ranch stretch across the terrain, connected by primitive tracks and proximity to seasonal waterways like Arroyo Blanco. The topography is dominated by Mogotes Hill, providing a distinct high point in an area otherwise characterized by sweeping pastures such as Bruni Pasture and Tortuga Pasture.
