2010 Map of Anacacho

About this map

Anacacho Ranch and its private airfield anchor this arid Kinney County landscape, where the geography is defined by a sparse network of ranching infrastructure and intermittent waterways. The Anacacho Mountains rise as the primary topographic feature, punctuated by Indian Head Peak and sliced by the drainage of Beef Canyon. Water management is central to the area's utility, evidenced by the numerous tanks and windmills like the Chacon Windmill and Enmedio Windmill that dot the scrubland. These features, along with Anacacho Lake and its associated dam, suggest a persistent focus on supporting livestock in an environment where reliable surface water is limited to seasonal flows like Elm Creek and Stricklin Creek. The passage of F-M 1572 and Anacacho Ln provides the primary transit through this isolated ranching corridor.
