2023 Map of Dexter East

About this map

The Pecos River carves a winding path through this corner of Chaves County, creating a riparian corridor that supports a complex network of irrigation and aquaculture. The Hagerman Canal runs parallel to the river's western bank, serving the agricultural needs of the settlements at Dexter, Greenfield, and Hagerman. A primary focal point is the Dexter National Fish Hatchery and Fish Technology Center, situated near the waters of Lake Van. This facility highlights the region's specialized role in regional water management and conservation. To the south, the Rio Felix joins the river system, while the northern reaches include the Durand Reservoir. Local landmarks like the Spring Mound Valley Cem and a grid of rural routes, including Co RD 49 and Navajo RD, document the established residential and farming footprint of the Pecos Valley.
