1972 Map of Santa Elena SE

About this map

Vargas Creek winds through this arid South Texas landscape, defining a terrain shaped by ranching and energy extraction. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map documents a sparse but vital network of water sources, from the Pita Windmill and Purisima Windmill to the Juarez Well and Registre Windmill. These named wells and windmills suggest a history of livestock grazing across large tracts of land, where every reliable water point was a critical landmark.
