2004 Map of Avis

USGS Topo · Published 2006

About this map

Lincoln National Forest lands dominate this high-desert terrain, where deep drainage systems like Dog Canyon and Bluewater Canyon define the movement of water across the Otero County landscape. The small settlement of Avis serves as a central landmark, supported by the presence of the Avis Cem and a nearby Airstrip. This 2004 revision reveals a ranching and rural economy reliant on scattered water infrastructure, evidenced by numerous named improvements such as Rainsplitter No 1 Tank, Irons Tank, and Daugherty Tank. To the south, the village of Piñon is documented alongside Piñon Creek and the Piñon Cem, illustrating the enduring nature of these small mountain communities. The topographic detail captures the transition from elevated canyon rims to the lower reaches of Barclay Draw and Behringer Canyon, providing a clear view of the area's geography prior to the mid-2000s.
