2010 Map of Big Aguja Mountain

About this map

Seven Springs Ranch and the Saddleback Ranch Airport anchor the human presence in this expansive reach of West Texas terrain. The landscape is defined by its water management systems, where windmills like the Company Windmill, Kennedy Windmill, and Little Hell Windmill point to the critical role of groundwater for local ranching operations. The Barilla Mountains dominate the eastern view, while the western portion is etched by deep drainages including Big Aguja Canyon, Little Aguja Canyon, and Catclaw Canyon. Infrastructure for the rail industry is evident through the T and P Railroad Lake Dam and the associated T and P Lake, which served as vital resources in this arid environment. Scattered springs such as Augustine Spring and Walnut Spring offer natural contrast to the numerous man-made stock tanks like Little Hell Tank and Catfish Tank.
