2023 Map of Dexter West

About this map

Hagerman Canal defines the eastern agricultural corridor of this Chaves County landscape, where irrigation infrastructure supports the rural outskirts of Dexter. The terrain is characterized by broad ephemeral watercourses like Thirteenmile Draw and Zubi Draw, which cut across a grid of section lines and county roads. Transportation is anchored by the north-south axis of SE Main St, running parallel to the historic route of the Old Chisum Trl, a name reflecting the region's deep ranching heritage. Near the northern boundary, Jenkins Airport and the Roswell Correctional Center stand as significant modern landmarks. The map meticulously records numerous local thoroughfares including Cherokee Rd and Caddo Rd, illustrating the intersection of state-managed facilities and the enduring rural settlement patterns of the Pecos Valley.
