2023 Map of Cornucopia Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Pinon sits at the northern edge of this high-altitude landscape, where the Chaves and Otero county line cuts through the drainages of the Sacramento Mountains. The terrain is defined by a dense network of draws and canyons, most notably the winding Cornucopia Canyon and Cornucopia Draw. Water management is central to the land's utility, evidenced by the numerous named catchments such as the Alva Smith Tanks, John Gentry Tank, and School Tank that dot the map. These features suggest a ranching economy reliant on carefully managed runoff in an arid environment. Transportation is primarily composed of county roads and local routes like Stevens Draw Rd and Shockley Lake Rd, which navigate the elevation changes around landmarks like the Collins Hills and Dry Peak. The detailed record of bank features, such as Doll Day Bank, provides a unique view of the minor topographical breaks that often influenced local travel and homestead placement.
