The high desert landscape of Luna County and Doña Ana County centers on Deming, a pivotal junction where the Atxison Topeka and Santa Fe and Southern Pacific railroads converge. This early 1980s topographic study captures the region's transition from historical frontier outposts to modern industrial and military use. To the north, the Fort Cummings (Ruins) lie near the base of the Cookes Range, marking a nineteenth-century landmark on the trail through the desert.
