2023 Map of Alivio

About this map

El Camino Real De Tierra Adentro Nht Trl follows a north-south course through this arid landscape, tracing a legendary transport route that has connected communities for centuries. The terrain is marked by significant hydrological features including Rincon Arroyo and a network of named livestock tanks such as Barbee Tank, Upper Taylor Tank, and the curiously named Upside Down Tank. The southern portion of the map transition from the McLeod Hills toward the Point of Rocks Tank, crossing the border between Sierra and Doña Ana counties. The small settlement of Alivio sits near the junction of Co RD a013, representing a quiet intersection of modern infrastructure and ancient desert pathways. Researchers can examine how terrain features like Canon Avendijo and Toby Hole dictated the placement of these vital water sources and roads.
