2010 Map of Wilson Ranch

About this map

Wilson Ranch sits at the heart of this rural Medina County landscape, where the management of water is central to the local economy. The terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages, including Squirrel Creek, Seco Creek, and Hondo Creek, which cut through the ranchland. Water infrastructure is prominently marked, including the Wilson Lake Dam and Eschenburg Lake Dam, alongside several family-named or utilitarian landmarks like the Javelin Windmill, Slaughter Windmill, and Briggs Windmill. These features reflect the long-standing ranching traditions of south-central Texas, where localized water sources were essential for livestock. A sparse network of roads, such as Wiemers Rd and Co Rd 1520, connects these remote outposts. The map documents a snapshot of land use where natural creek beds like Live Oak Creek and Tehuacana Creek dictate the placement of ranching infrastructure and local crossings.
