2020 Map of Cottonwood Hills
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
Tecolote Peak rises above a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage channels and ephemeral water sources in this section of Eddy County. The terrain is deeply etched by Hackberry Draw, Cottonwood Red Bluff Draw Draw, and Owl Draw, reflecting the arid environment where water management was critical for ranching operations. Isolated water features like Ward Waterhole and Apple Tank provide rare points of moisture across the higher elevations of the Cottonwood Hills. The road network, including Whites City Rd and Wilhoit Ranch Rd, indicates the enduring presence of local ranching and the infrastructure required to navigate this portion of New Mexico near the Texas border.
