The coastal plains of Kenedy County appear here in a modern survey of the South Texas brush country. This landscape is defined by the ephemeral water of Cayo Soledad and a network of unimproved roads that navigate the complex patterns of wetlands and dunes typical of the Wild Horse Desert region. The infrastructure of the ranching economy is evident through the presence of the South Tajos Ranch Airport, reflecting the vast distances and specialized logistics required to manage these large-scale cattle operations. This survey documents the terrain as it existed in 2019, showcasing the sparse but vital landmarks that serve as navigation points in an area largely dominated by private landholdings and open range.
