1969 Map of Comanche Waterhole

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Sabinal River cuts through the western edge of this territory, where the terrain shifts across the boundary of Uvalde County and Medina County. In the late 1960s, this landscape was defined by large ranching operations and water management, evidenced by the presence of a Gaging Sta on the river and the eponymous Comanche Waterhole to the southeast. The interior is a complex network of intermittent drainages including Rancheros Creek, Elm Creek, and Little Seco Creek that feed into larger valleys. Human activity is concentrated around established estates like K Bar Ranch and Valdina Farms, the latter of which features a private Landing Strip. A notable modern addition to this rural expanse is the Automotive Test Facility, suggesting the area's utility for isolated, large-scale industrial research during this era.
