2017 Map of Arrowhead Well

About this map

Cibola National Forest encompasses a significant portion of this landscape, where the high desert terrain transitions into the complex drainage systems of Durfee Canyon. The map reveals a sophisticated network of water management essential for ranching and survival in Socorro County, evidenced by features such as Arrowhead Well, Broke Tank, and Durfee Tank. A notable stretch of Old Hwy 60 cuts across the central townships, marking the historical transit corridor through this arid region. The presence of White Lake and the shifting Sand Hills highlights the ephemeral and geological character of the local hydrology and landforms during this 2017 survey.
