1982 Map of San Pedro Creek

About this map

San Pedro Creek meanders through the arid brush country of South Texas, defining the landscape of this rural area along the Maverick Co Dimmit Co line. This 1982 provisional survey captures the region as it existed in the mid-1970s, showcasing a network of seasonal watercourses including Botella Creek, Ambrosia Creek, and San Juan Creek. The terrain is characterized by ephemeral drainages and ranching improvements, with a notable Gravel Pit providing evidence of local extraction activities. An indefinite boundary cutting across the survey suggests the complex history of land partitioning in this sparsely populated borderlands region, where geography is primarily defined by the intermittent flow of desert creeks rather than concentrated settlements.
