2016 Map of Cometa
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Cometa sits at the intersection of livestock ranching and aviation in this southwestern Texas landscape. The map reveals a region defined by its drainages, where numerous seasonal waterways like Comanche Cr and Picosa Cr carve through the brush country. The presence of specialized infrastructure such as Picosa Ranch Airport and Chacon Creek Ranch Airport suggests the importance of private air travel in managing these expansive ranching properties. For genealogists and local historians, the southern portion of the quadrangle is particularly significant, containing the Cometa Cem and Vivian Cem. The survey also documents the triple-border junction where Maverick, Zavala, and Dimmit counties meet, a boundary point located near the headwaters of Pendencia Cr and Cayetano Cr.
