2011 Map of Arabela

About this map

Arabela stands as the central settlement in this eastern Lincoln County landscape, positioned along the northern reaches of the Agua Chiquita Creek drainage. The region is defined by a network of seasonal watercourses and springs, including Pino Real Spring and Matney Spring, which historically supported the isolated ranches and small communities like Ramerez and Bluewater. Evidence of early 21st-century mineral exploration is found at the Arabela Mines Incorporated Prospect near Boy Scout Mountain in the northwest. The presence of the Las Palas Cemetery near the main townsite provides a vital anchor for genealogical research, while landmarks such as Chimney Rock and Sunset Peak offer prominent navigational points across the canyons. The layout of county roads, such as County Rd-B040, illustrates the enduring rural transportation patterns connecting Whitaker Ranch to the surrounding hills.
