Las Piedritas Cem sits as a quiet landmark in the northwestern section of this landscape, just east of the Duval and Jim Wells county line. This portion of South Texas is defined by a ranching economy and a complex system of intermittent water management, illustrated by features like Government Tank, Llano Ancho Tank, and the seasonally wet Wild Steer Swale. The private infrastructure of the Seeligson Ranch dominates the southeastern quadrant, complete with its own Seeligson Ranch Airport. Drainage for the region is provided by the meandering paths of Jaboncillos Cr and Salado Cr, which cross a network of rural county roads. These transit routes, including Co RD 433 and Co RD 432, connect the scattered agricultural operations and water features that sustain life in this semi-arid environment.
