About this map

Chupadero Mountain and the southern reaches of the Jicarilla Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Lincoln County. This territory, largely defined by the boundaries of the Lincoln National Forest, shows a complex network of canyon drainages and high points such as the Bald Hills. Human presence is marked by historic transit routes and small cultural sites, most notably the Carrabajal Cem situated near the intersection of local roads.

Surface infrastructure is concentrated along gravel routes like Hoecradle and several county roads including Co RD a032 and Co RD a036, which follow the natural contours of the land. The mapping of Hasperos Canyon provides a clear view of the drainage patterns essential for understanding the local environment in this corner of New Mexico. This survey is particularly useful for those tracking family land ties or historical access points within the national forest system.
