1978 Map of Tequesquite Creek NE

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Tequesquite Creek and its neighboring watercourses define the ranching landscape of Kinney County in the late 1970s. This survey records a period when the Southern Pacific railroad served as the primary transit corridor across the northern portion of the quadrangle, passing through a terrain punctuated by water-scarcity solutions such as Macie Windmill and Coyote Windmill. The modest settlement at Peters stands as a focal point in a region otherwise dedicated to resource extraction and light industry, evidenced by several Gravel Pits and a modern Pipeline. Land use patterns here are further revealed by a remote Landing Strip, suggesting the vast distances managed by local landowners. The map captures the hydrological network of the arid brush country, where intermittent flows like Las Moras Creek and Cow Creek dictated the placement of early improvements.
