1972 Map of San Pablo Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

San Pablo Ranch and the surrounding South Texas brush country are defined here by a network of water-pumping infrastructure and petroleum exploration. This 1970s landscape in Jim Hogg County is dotted with specific, family-named water sources such as the Pablo Blanco Windmill, Maria Stella Windmill, and Tia Nena Windmill, which reflect the region's essential reliance on groundwater for ranching operations. The industrial character of the era is visible through the Prado Oil Field and numerous scattered Oil Wells, linked by a prominent Pipeline cutting across the terrain. Remote outposts like San Rafael Ranch and Lyton Ranch, the latter featuring a dedicated Landing Strip, highlight the vast distances and specialized transportation required to manage these large-scale holdings during the late twentieth century.
