2013 Map of Flying H

About this map

Flying H and the Flying H Ranch Airport anchor this ranching landscape along the Rio Felix in the southern Chaves County uplands. The terrain is defined by a series of pastures and canyons, including Dry Pasture, West Red Pasture, East Red Pasture, and Indian Pasture, which transition into named drainages such as Crooked Canyon and Cherry Canyon. The reliance on groundwater in this arid environment is evident from the numerous named windmills distributed across the township lines, including Scotty Windmill, Gnat Windmill, and Shanks Windmill. The map also captures the path of local corridors like Felix Canyon Rd and Old Schoolhouse Rd, which connect isolated sites like the Red House to the broader region. This 2013 survey reflects a landscape where traditional land management and aviation facilities coexist among the geographic features of Squaw Canyon and Challenge Canyon.
