2017 Map of Garton Lake
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
White Sands National Monument dominates this southern New Mexico landscape, characterized by the winding path of Dunes Drive and the ephemeral drainage of the Lost River. The map captures a critical interface between public parkland and the restricted military zones of the White Sands Missile Range and Holloman AFB. On the eastern edge, the installation's infrastructure is visible near Holloman Lake and Hurtz Spring. A notable human-made waypoint is the White Sands Gate where Highway 70 intersects the monument's boundary. The inclusion of Garton Lake further highlights the rare presence of water in this arid environment, showing how natural hydrology and defense-related land use have shaped the Otero County basin.
