2016 Map of Telephone Tanks
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
La Esperanza Ranch Airport sits at the center of this South Texas landscape, where the brush country is defined by an intricate network of intermittent drainage creeks and ranch access roads. The terrain is marked by the seasonal flow of Las Raices Cr, Cuchara Cr, and Cochio Cr, illustrating how water sources dictate land use in this arid region of Webb County. The presence of the Telephone Tanks near the western edge highlights the historical reliance on catchment basins for livestock and ranching operations. Transportation routes like US Highway 83 and various ranch roads, including Ranch Rd 863 and Galvan Rd, provide the primary structure for this sparsely populated territory, connecting remote ranch complexes to the wider region.
