2012 Map of Rockaway Creek

About this map

The Frio River winds through this sparsely settled corner of McMullen County, defining a landscape of creek beds and seasonal water catchments. Ranching and rural access are central to the area's layout, with Old Fowlerton Rd cutting across the central plains and providing connection between isolated landmarks like Muerto Camp. Numerous drainages such as Rockaway Cr, Galinda Cr, and Muerto Cr feed into the river system, illustrating the hydrology of the South Texas brush country. Local land use is further indicated by water management features like the Middle Mule Tank and the presence of named terrain features such as Sand Hollow. This 2012 survey documents the region's road network, including Hayes Ranch Rd and Martin Rd, at a time when the landscape remained dominated by traditional agricultural and pastoral boundaries.
