1956 Map of Rosita Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The boundary between Kenedy Co and Willacy Co defines the transition from the livestock-focused ranches of the north to the irrigated agricultural developments of the south. This coastal South Texas landscape is dominated by a complex network of watering holes and windmills, including the Charco Blanco Windmill and Santo Domingo Windmill, which were essential for maintaining cattle across the dry Sand Dunes. The northern portion is characterized by large private holdings like the Punta del Monte Ranch and San Francisco Ranch.
