About this map

Jornada Experimental Range dominates this portion of Doña Ana County, revealing a specialized high-desert landscape managed for agricultural research and national security shortly after World War II. The map details the administrative and operational infrastructure of the era, from the Jornada Reserve Headquarters to the Love Ranch Hdqrs, surrounded by an extensive network of water sources like Taylor Well and Rock House Spring. These sites supported both ranching history and scientific study, including a unique Artificial Revegetation Plot.
