About this map

San Juanito Creek and Retama Creek dominate this Webb County landscape, carving intricate drainage patterns through the brush country. The map documents an area defined by its energy production and infrastructure during the late 1970s, with a significant Oil Field and numerous Oil Wells, Drill Holes, and a Gas Well scattered across the terrain.

Industrial and transportation corridors are prominent, including a large Test Facility and a linear Pipeline that cuts across the northern half of the sheet. Small clusters of development at Killam and Reiser suggest the modest footprint of settlement in this region, while a Roadside Park along the highway serves as a lone public landmark. The convergence of Lobo Creek, Mexican Creek, and Cerrito Creek further illustrates the complex hydrological network of this South Texas environment.
