About this map

Cub Mountain rises as a central landmark in this high-altitude landscape of Lincoln County, where dramatic elevation changes define the local geography. The settlement of Polly sits north of the Polly Hills, serving as a focal point in a region dominated by a complex network of canyons and draws. Water sources are critical features of this arid terrain, evidenced by the presence of Rattlesnake Spring, Cub Mountain Spring, and Shady Spring, which likely supported early ranching or travel through the area. The map illustrates a transition from the lower elevations of Cottonwood Creek and Rim Rock Canyon to the prominent peaks of Chaves Mountain and The Hogback. The inclusion of Cripple Creek Rd and various canyons like Tanner Canyon provides insight into the historical accessibility and drainage patterns of this New Mexico backcountry.
