1952 Map of Palacios SE

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Matagorda Peninsula dominates this coastal survey, appearing as a long, narrow barrier of land between the Gulf of Mexico and Matagorda Bay. The topography reveals an intricate system of marshy inlets and waterways, including Maverick Bayou and Big Bayou, which carve into the landward side of the peninsula. Along the northern mainland edge, the Intracoastal Waterway is visible, protected by a Levee near Mad Island Lake.
