2016 Map of Rosita Lake

About this map

Rosita Lake lies at the heart of this coastal plains landscape in Kenedy County, surrounded by an intricate network of wetlands and ephemeral water bodies. This 2016 survey captures the sparse, ranch-dominated character of the South Texas brush country, where human imprints are primarily limited to the passage of H Yturria Rd. The terrain is defined by a distinct pattern of depressions and small basins that collect seasonal water, essential for local wildlife and cattle in this semi-arid environment. By documenting the exact placement of these water features and the primary ranch road, the map provides a contemporary record of land use and hydrology in one of the state's most privately held and least densely populated regions.
