1969 Map of Pita Island

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The coastal transition of the Texas shoreline unfolds across this late 1960s survey, dominated by the waters of Laguna Madre and the nascent Padre Island National Seashore. The landscape is a study in ranching and resource extraction, where numerous family-named landmarks such as Los Cedros Windmill, Guajolote Windmill, and Acuna Windmill are scattered across the western terrain near Laguna Larga. These windmills signify the critical role of water management in a region where the dry prairie meets the hypersaline lagoon.
