1936 Map of Mouth Of Rio Grande

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

The Rio Grande winds through a complex coastal landscape of tidal flats and low hills in this 1930s survey of the southernmost tip of Texas. This map documents a transitional period for the border region, featuring the Mouth of Rio Grande where the river meets the Gulf of Mexico. The terrain is characterized by a series of lomas, or small clay dunes, such as Loma de la Estrella and Loma de los Ebanitos, which rise above the surrounding marshes of the Laguna Madre.
