Coyote Peak rises as the prominent high point in this corner of the high desert, anchoring a landscape defined by the drainage patterns of the South Pyramid Draw and Black Mountain Draw. The 2013 survey illustrates the essential infrastructure of ranching life in New Mexico's southwestern ranchlands, where cattle management relies on scattered water sources like New Coyote Tank, Lower Camp Tank, and East Tank. The geography is bisected by the Hidalgo and Grant County line, showing how property and political boundaries overlay the natural topography of the Playas Valley and the Brockman Hills. Modern utility corridors are represented by the long stretch of Pipeline Rd, while local ranching access is maintained through routes such as Mayfield Ranch Rd and Baker Ranch Rd.
