Custer Mountain and Old Baldy dominate this arid landscape in Lea County, New Mexico, where the terrain is marked by distinctive ephemeral water sources and rugged draws. The presence of Old Lake, Sewell Tank, and the Dinwiddie Tanks points to the essential infrastructure required for ranching and survival in this desert environment. Human activity in the area is further evidenced by the Jal Rifle Range and a network of rural roads such as Cooper Cemetery Rd, which hints at local history and family landmarks often sought by genealogists.
