2023 Map of Culberson Ranch

About this map

Glen Acres anchors the southwestern portion of this topographic study, representing a localized settlement point in the arid ranching country of Hidalgo County. The landscape is defined by the vital presence of water management features, including Willow Tank, Still Tank, and Aikers Tank, which reflect the livestock-rearing heritage of this corner of New Mexico. The geography is etched by several prominent drainages, notably Thompson Canyon and the evocatively named Hoodoo Canyon. Traversing the southern half of the sheet, the Continental Divide National Scenic Trl provides a significant reference for the high-desert terrain, winding through the township lines of the border region. A network of ranch roads like El Paso Gas Rd and State Hwy 464 provides the primary infrastructure connecting these remote canyons and tanks.
