1996 Map of Dugout Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Dugout Canyon and Chalk Ridge dominate the rugged northeastern corner of this Sierra County landscape, where the terrain transitions toward the high-security border of the White Sands Missile Range. The area is characterized by an extensive network of water management features essential for ranching and survival in the arid high desert, including Mountain Well, High Lonesome Well, and numerous named catchments such as Rabbit Tank and Marys Tank. Human activity is primarily limited to resource extraction and land management, evidenced by several Gravel Pits and a Drill Hole. The presence of BLM Tank reflects federal land oversight, while the web of 4wd tracks suggests a remote environment where movement is dictated by the steep contours and dry washes.
