2022 Map of Palomas Ranch

About this map

Palo Blanco Cr and Arroyo Baluarte define the drainage patterns of this South Texas landscape in Brooks County. The terrain is characterized by the ephemeral flow of these creek systems, which cut through the ranchlands that dominate the area. Human activity is primarily visible through a sparse network of county roads, including Co Rd 110 and Co Rd 101, which navigate the open country. The naming of Baluarte Creek Rd reflects the local importance of the arroyo to the few transit routes established here. This 2022 survey captures the modern ranch boundaries and infrastructure, showing how water sources dictate the placement of roads and homesteads in a region where every creek bed is a significant landmark.
