2020 Map of Coyote Draw

About this map

Arroyo del Macho cuts through this high desert portion of Chaves County, defining a landscape shaped by seasonal water management and livestock ranching. The presence of numerous engineered water features like TX Tank, Hilltop Tank, and Stewart Tank highlights the necessity of human intervention in this arid environment. To the south and east, the terrain opens into wide depressions and ephemeral water bodies, including Cocklebur Lakes, Coons Lake, and Yellow Lake. The topographical detail shows the subtle descent from Garcia Flat toward the drainage of Coyote Draw. A sparse network of county roads, such as Red Bluff Rd and Co Rd 100, provides the primary access across these expansive townships and ranges, marking the continued reliance on legacy ranching infrastructure in the modern era.
