White Sands Missile Range and the Jornada Experimental Range (Usda) converge in this arid high-desert landscape of Doña Ana County. The terrain is defined by the sharp rise of the San Andres Mountains, featuring prominent heights like Bear Peak and Quartzite Mountain. Water management is the primary sign of human activity in this restricted area, evidenced by a network of isolated tanks and springs such as Peoria Tank, Gardner Spring, and West Cottonwood Well.
