1980 Map of Mogotes Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Mogotes Hill rises as a prominent landmark in this Zapata County landscape, which by 1980 was heavily defined by the regional energy industry. A network of Gas Wells and an extensive Pipeline cross the terrain, supported by infrastructure like a Pumping Station and multiple storage Tanks. The natural drainage of the South Texas brush country is clearly mapped through winding ephemeral watercourses including Arroyo Blanco, Salomoneño Creek, and Escobas Creek. Of particular interest to genealogists and local historians is a lone Grave marked near the center of the sheet, suggesting a small family burial or isolated memorial away from established towns. The mapping also details smaller drainages such as Cañada Honda and Taguache Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of this arid region prior to modern development.
