2023 Map of Algerita Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Lincoln National Forest land and the sharp drop-offs of the Guadalupe Rim define this area of Otero County in the early 2020s. This survey focuses on the dramatic topography of the Guadalupe Mountains and the southern Brokeoff Mountains, where elevations vary from the high ground of Powers Ridge to the low expanse of Salt Flat. The map documents a network of essential water resources in this arid environment, including Calvin Tank, Jeffrey Tank, and Algerita Tank, which provided vital collection points for livestock and wildlife. Canyons such as Big Dog Canyon and Box Canyon cut through the limestone terrain, while the sharp escarpment of The Rim provides a clear boundary between the high plateaus and the valley floor below.
