2022 Map of Peloncillo Peak

About this map

Peloncillo Peak rises as a primary landmark in this ranching landscape along the border of Kinney and Maverick Counties. The area is defined by a complex network of seasonal water drainage and livestock infrastructure, including numerous named stock ponds such as Snake Tank, Snow Tank, and Hard Luck Tank. These water sources are critical to the local economy, supporting operations centered around Dunbar Ranch Airport and nearby Dunbar Lake. The terrain is dissected by the meandering courses of Elm Creek and Lindsey Cr, which flow through the arid brush country of South Texas. Evidence of land use is visible in the network of rural routes like Anacacho Rd and Farm Rd 481, which connect remote ranch outposts. This detailed survey provides a clear view of the hydraulic and transportation patterns necessary for survival in this semi-arid environment.
