About this map

The eastern edge of the Hueco Mountains gives way to a sprawling arid landscape marked by significant water management and recreation infrastructure in the mid-1990s. This desert floor near El Paso is defined by a distinct grid of development and the presence of specialized local landmarks like Mountain Shadow Lake, which features a Boat Ramp and Athletic Fields. The terrain is punctuated by isolated rises such as Backbone Hill and Horse Hill, providing topographic variation against the broader expanse of Sand Dunes.

Water security in this environment is evidenced by numerous named reservoirs and wells, including Dugout Tank, Sand Tank, and Midway Tank, alongside ranching or industrial outposts like Rentleman Well. Extensive networks of Pipelines crisscross the region, highlighting the area's role as a utility corridor. Local resource extraction is also visible through several Gravel Pits located near the foothills, showing the active industrial use of the land.
