1982 Map of Piloncillo Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Piloncillo Hill rises as the central landmark in this South Texas borderland landscape, situated along the Dimmit Co Webb Co line. This 1982 provisional survey documents a region defined by its vital water management infrastructure, where man-made reservoirs like Blocker Tank and Javelina Tank are essential for ranching operations in the semi-arid brush country. The drainage network is characterized by seasonal watercourses such as Las Tablas Creek, Las Raices Creek, and Pelon Ciz Creek, which carve winding paths through the terrain. The inclusion of an Indefinite Boundary and scattered landing strips suggests a sparsely populated, functional ranching environment where land use is dictated by the rugged hydrology of Canyon Creek and the availability of groundwater indicated by Well Tank.
