About this map

Aguila Valley dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, where the flat desert floor meets the rising foothills of the desert ranges. The 1960s cattle industry is evident through a network of water catchments including Mexican Joe Tank, Brahma Tank, and Stockyard Tank, which supported livestock across the arid terrain. In the south, the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts a straight path through the valley, passing the point labeled Divide as it mirrors the wash systems. Primitive access into the higher elevations is marked by a Jeep Trail winding through the north-central peaks. The drainage of Sols Wash defines the eastern corridor, acting as a natural conduit for seasonal runoff and a focal point for water management features like Knight Tank and Sols Wash Tank.
