2011 Map of Armstrong Canyon

About this map

Largo Creek serves as the primary hydrological spine through this Catron County landscape, where the arid environment is punctuated by a series of critical water-access points. The mapping of Allison Windmill, Middle Windmill, and Caudill Windmill highlights the vital infrastructure required for ranching and survival in the high desert. These features, along with the Hollingsworth Windmill and Cottonwood Windmill, illustrate the distribution of resources across a terrain defined by significant drainage systems such as Armstrong Canyon and French Canyon.
