2010 Map of C-N Lake

About this map

C-N Lake sits at the heart of this sparsely settled landscape in Catron County, New Mexico. The geography here is defined by an expansive network of unimproved roads and drainage paths that reveal a pastoral economy reliant on water management in a high-desert environment. A single named landmark, the West Pasture Windmill, serves as a critical navigation point and functional infrastructure piece for local ranching operations. The terrain is marked by subtle shifts in elevation and seasonal water features, illustrating the isolation and specialized land use patterns typical of the region in the early 21st century.
