Fort Bliss dominates the central portion of this high-desert landscape in Otero County, where modern military training grounds overlap a complex system of natural drainage features. The terrain is defined by the significant corridor of El Paso Draw and the carved depths of El Paso Canyon, which transition into the northern reaches of Wildcat Draw. These natural landmarks provide a striking contrast to the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, which divides the area into townships such as t21s r12e and t22s r13e.
