About this map

The confluence of three major waterways—the Atascosa River, Frio River, and Nueces River—defines the landscape surrounding the town of Three Rivers. This 2013 survey reveals a geography shaped by both natural river courses and industrial energy extraction, most notably at the Oakville-Wilcox Gas Field to the southeast. The town site itself is situated just north of the junction where the Frio and Atascosa meet, with residential streets like Avenida Seguin and Tullos St clustered near the Three Rivers Lake bypass.

Downstream toward the south, the terrain opens into a series of creek drainages including Salt Br and Rex Cabaniss Cr, while the small settlement of Ike sits along the road network leading toward the gas fields. To the northwest, the riparian environment includes Sinclair Lake, Yarbrough Lake, and the broad Sinclair Hollow, illustrating the complex wetland system formed by these intersecting river basins before they merge into the Nueces.
