2016 Map of Zuberbueler Bend

About this map

Zuberbueler Bend forms a striking geographic feature along the international border between Texas and Mexico. This 2016 survey documents the intricate canyons and drainages of Val Verde Co as they converge toward the Rio Grande. The landscape is dominated by the Amistad-National Recreation Area, showing how the impounded waters of the river system have transformed this arid region. For those researching local ranching history, Zuberbueler Ranch Rd provides a clear link to the area's agricultural heritage, leading toward the dramatic horseshoe curve of the river. The map also identifies Goodenough Springs, a notable submerged water feature, alongside the distinct boundaries of Amistad NRA.
