2012 Map of Contrary Creek

About this map

Mountain Home serves as a central point of reference in this Kerr County landscape, where the headwaters of the Little Devils River and several namesake creeks carve through the terrain. The presence of New Windmill and East Windmill suggests the continued importance of ranching and water management in this part of the Texas Hill Country. To the south, Contrary Cr and its associated Contrary Spring provide a rare glimpse into the hydrological network that sustains the local environment. Transportation and aviation are represented by the crossing of The Hadora Rd and the inclusion of private airstrips such as Goebel Field Airport and Priour Ranch Airport. The mapping of family-named ranch roads, including Earl Garrett Ranch Rd and Carpenter Ranch Rd, offers specific details for those researching local land use and genealogy in the early twenty-first century.
