About this map

Shipp Ranch serves as a central landmark in this South Texas landscape, where the management of water is the primary architectural feature of the terrain. The map reveals an intricate network of livestock tanks and reservoirs essential for ranching in Webb County, many bearing names that reflect the heritage and environment of the region. Features such as Certificado Tank, Caballero Tank, and Rancho Viejo Tank are scattered across the brushland, marking vital points of activity in an otherwise open expanse. The drainage patterns of Salado Creek and Gato Creek structure the territory, while local landmarks like Loma Blanca provide topographic relief. This 1980s-era survey documents the established ranching infrastructure and land use patterns that have long characterized this portion of the Rio Grande plain.
