2013 Map of Comanche Waterhole

About this map

Comanche Waterhole sits at the heart of this Medina County landscape, where the arid terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages and creek beds. The map illustrates a ranching-focused economy, anchored by large-scale properties such as Valdina Farms and K Bar Ranch, which includes the K Bar Ranch Airport. The hydrography of the region is complex, with the Sabinal River cutting through the western edge while numerous tributaries like Rancheros Cr, Comanche Cr, and Little Comanche Cr crisscross the central and eastern sections. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure in the Texas Hill Country, showing the transition from state-maintained routes like Ranch Road 187 and Ranch Road 1796 to the local county and private roads that provide access to these expansive livestock and agricultural operations.
