2023 Map of Cow Springs Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Cow Springs Mountain dominates this high-desert landscape in Luna County, serving as a central landmark for a region defined by its seasonal water management and historic travel routes. The topographic detail reveals an intricate network of drainage features such as West Antelope Draw and Cow Springs Draw, along with numerous cattle tanks including Hogback Tank and Rattlesnake Tank. These man-made water catchments are essential infrastructure for ranching in this arid environment. Tracing through the southern portion of the map is the historic Butterfield Trl, a significant 19th-century mail and passenger route that follows the natural contours of the land south of White Rock Canyon. The map also illustrates the dividing line between Grant Co and Luna Co, where family-named landmarks like McDonald Draw and Thorne Hay Draw Tank suggest the long-standing agricultural heritage of the area.
