About this map

The southeastern outskirts of Deming meet the northern foothills of the Florida Mountains in this early 21st-century survey. The landscape is defined by a dense, burgeoning grid of residential streets like Sagebrush Rd and Wagon Wheel Rd SE that push toward the high desert peaks. To the south, the topography rises sharply at Navajo Bill Hill and Dragon Ridge, where the terrain gives way to drainage features such as Capitol Dome Draw and Mexican Canyon.

Mineral history is preserved near the base of the mountains, with the Stenson Mine and Copper Queen Mine located near Tubb Spring. Large-scale ranching operations, including the Spanish Stirrup Ranch and Capitol Dome Ranch, provide a look at the area's agricultural footprint. Notable landmarks like Chimney Point and the steep walls of Lovers Leap Canyon frame the southern portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the transition from the structured street plan of the north to the wilderness of the peaks.
