About this map

Condor Canyon dominates this high-desert portion of Lincoln County, where the topography is defined by complex drainage systems and volcanic outcrops. The geological history of the region is evident in the path of the Meadow Valley Wash, which cuts through the terrain alongside other seasonal watercourses like Patterson Wash and Kiln Wash. These ephemeral streams illustrate the hydraulic patterns that have shaped the land, creating landforms such as Hamlight Canyon and Condor Ravine.

Human presence is marked by routes like Delmue Ranch Rd and Oak Wells RD, which navigate around prominent landmarks including Black Hill and the basin of Dry Valley. The inclusion of Delmue Spring highlights a vital water source in this arid landscape, a site of historical importance for local ranching and transit. This 2018 survey provides an exact representation of the existing trails and natural boundaries within townships like t1s r68e and t2s r69e.
