1982 Map of Fifteenmile Lake

About this map

The White Sands Missile Range dominates this orthophotomap, showing the stark intersection of military infrastructure and the dynamic Tularosa Basin landscape in the early 1980s. The map illustrates a unique environment defined by White Sands and extensive areas of Shifting Sand, where topography is constantly reshaped by wind. Water features like Big Salt Lake, Horseshoe Lake, and Fifteenmile Lake appear as ephemeral catchments in an arid basin otherwise drained by Three Rivers and Bitter Creek.
