2022 Map of Saltillo Well

About this map

The sparse coastal plains of Kenedy County are defined here by a network of intermittent wetlands and the prominent Cayo Soledad. This modern topographic study reveals a landscape dominated by ranching interests and natural drainage patterns, with few permanent structures or major roadways. The terrain is characterized by low elevation and a complex system of ponds and marshes that dictate the movement across this remote stretch of South Texas. While the map is light on named settlements, the presence of Cayo Soledad serves as a primary geographic anchor for researchers studying the hydrology and land use of the region in the early twenty-first century.
