2017 Map of Carrizozo East

About this map

Carrizozo serves as the primary hub in this arid landscape where the high desert meets the slopes of Carrizo Mtn and Baxter Mtn. The town’s residential grid, featuring streets like 12th St and Birch St, is defined by its proximity to vital water sources such as Carrizozo Spring. To the north, the small settlement of Robsart sits along the road, while the terrain transitions into the protected highlands of the Lincoln National Forest. The landscape is dotted with named windmills like Mayer Windmill and Nickles Windmill, highlighting the essential infrastructure required for ranching and survival in this portion of Lincoln County. Deep drainage features, including White Oaks Canyon and Nogal Draw, trace the natural path of seasonal water through the rugged Bald Hills.
