1996 Map of Gardner Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

San Andres Mountain dominates this high-altitude landscape, where the rugged peaks and deep arroyos of southern New Mexico intersect with restricted federal lands. The terrain is defined by the sharp verticality of Gardner Peak and Oñate Mountain, which overlook the arid expanse of the Jornada Del Muerto to the west. This area serves as a critical buffer between the military operations of the White Sands Missile Range and the protected habitats of the San Andres National Wildlife Refuge. Water sources, though scarce, are clearly documented at San Andrecito Spring, Mayberry Spring, and Crawford Spring, highlighting the essential points of survival in this desert environment. The drainage patterns are mapped through several dramatic cuts, including Lost Man Canyon and Dead Man Canyon, which funnel toward the basin floors.
