About this map

White Sands National Park and the adjacent White Sands Missile Range dominate this desert landscape in Otero County, where modern military operations and conservation efforts meet. The terrain is defined by the stark gypsum formations of White Sands and prominent landmarks like Point of Sands and Twin Buttes. Human presence is largely restricted to specific infrastructure, notably Highway 70 cutting through the western section and specialized routes such as Wsmr S RT 260. While most of the quadrangle is arid and open, the presence of Harrington Spring in the northeast indicates a rare reliable water source. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System boundaries, including t18s r7e and t19s r8e, which organize this vast, controlled environment.
