2019 Map of Palomas Ranch

About this map

Palomas Ranch sits at the heart of this Brooks County landscape, illustrating the enduring cattle-ranching heritage of South Texas. The terrain is defined by the subtle, winding drainage of Palo Blanco Cr and Arroyo Baluarte, ephemeral watercourses that dictate the movement of both livestock and travel in this brush country. The map captures a contemporary snapshot of the rural infrastructure required to maintain these large landholdings, where long-stretching county routes like Baluarte Creek Rd and Co Rd 101 provide essential access across the open range. The parcel boundaries and road networks shown here reveal how modern land management continues to follow the historical patterns of water access and topographical contours in the Rio Grande Plain.
