About this map

West Nueces River and its tributary W Nueces River carve through the limestone landscape of Kinney County, defining the drainage patterns of this South Texas region. The terrain is marked by seasonal watercourses and topographic depressions like Leona Draw, while the broader expanse of Grass Valley provides a rare area of level ground amidst the dissected plateau. Transportation and infrastructure are concentrated in the eastern portion of the sheet, where FM 3199 provides access to the Tularosa Airport. This facility serves as a vital remote aviation link in the ranchlands north of the Mexican border. Ephemeral streams such as Lindsey Cr underscore the semi-arid character of the environment, where water management and seasonal flow have historically dictated land use and settlement patterns.
