2023 Map of Carlsbad West

About this map

Carlsbad and the residential expansion of West Carlsbad dominate the eastern edge of this terrain, where the Pecos River and the Main Canal support the local water system. The landscape shifts from the town's urban grid to the foothills of the Guadalupe Mountains, characterized by complex drainages like Catclaw Draw and Calabaza Draw. This map captures the modern interface between the growing city and the high desert, including the campus of Southeast New Mexico College and the neighborhood of Happy Valley.
