2013 Map of Holcomb Reservoir

About this map

English Hills rises above a landscape defined by ranching infrastructure and intermittent water sources in Frio County. This 2013 survey documents a network of private water tanks, such as English Hills Tank, Tutiga Tank, and Llave Tank, which are vital for supporting livestock in this South Texas environment. The Frio River and its many tributaries, including Elm Cr and Jack Cr, cross the terrain, though many appear as seasonal drainages rather than permanent flows. Notable landmarks include the prominent elevation of Pilot Knob and the Holcomb Reservoir in the northwestern corner. The area is served by local transit routes like Leona River Rd and FM-140, connecting the dispersed rural holdings and water features that characterize the region's agricultural economy.
