Rancho Álamos de García Airport

The official reason for closure is not documented. As a small, private airstrip identified by its name ('Rancho Álamos de García'), it is highly probable that it was closed for economic reasons, cessation of the owner's private aviation needs, or the sale and subsequent repurposing of the land for agriculture. This is a common fate for small, private-use airfields.

The airport is defunct and the site has been reclaimed for agricultural use. Current satellite imagery of the coordinates (28.666, -104.15348) shows that the land is now part of the surrounding farmland. While a very faint outline of the former dirt runway can still be discerned, it is overgrown and unusable. There is no remaining airport infrastructure such as hangars, lighting, or service buildings on the site.

The airport was a private airstrip serving the agricultural property known as Rancho Álamos de García. Its primary purpose was likely to support the ranch's operations, which could have included private transportation for the owners, light cargo, and aerial application (crop dusting). The unpaved runway, approximately 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) in length, would have accommodated light general aviation aircraft such as Cessna, Piper, or similar propeller-driven planes. Its significance was purely local and private, providing air access to a remote agricultural area rather than serving the general public.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. The land has been fully integrated into agricultural activities, making a future reopening extremely unlikely without a significant private investment and a renewed need for an airstrip at this specific location.
