2017 Map of Bottomless Lakes
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Bottomless Lakes cluster along a dramatic escarpment east of the Pecos River, where sinkholes have formed deep cenotes in the Chaves County landscape. This 2017 survey shows the intricate hydrology of the area, ranging from the prominent Lea Lake and Dimmitt Lake to the smaller, distinctive formations of Inkwell Lake and Figure Eight Lake. The contrast between the river's winding path and the stationary deep-blue basins of the lakes highlights the unique geological activity of the region.
