1974 Map of Olmos Creek
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
Kennedy Flats and the elevated terrain of Black Brush Ridge define this South Texas landscape where the borders of Zavala, Uvalde, Maverick, and Kinney counties converge. This 1974 survey illustrates a region dominated by intermittent water management, featuring an extensive network of drainage basins and named tanks such as Lilly Pad Tank and Government Tank. These water sources were vital for ranching operations in the brush country, where ephemeral streams like Olmos Gato Creek and Chaparrosa Creek only flow during significant rainfall.
