1952 Map of Yarborough Pass

About this map

Artesian wells punctuate the arid terrain west of Laguna Madre, indicating the vital importance of groundwater for isolated ranching outposts like Carnestolendas Ranch and Mota Casa. This mid-century coastal survey captures the transition between the mainland's shifting sands and the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The landscape is dominated by the linear expanse of the Padre Island National Seashore, separated from the mainland by the Intracoastal Waterway and the shallow basin of Middle Ground.
