About this map

Duncan and the residential area of Hunter Flat anchor the southern reaches of this landscape where the borders of Arizona and New Mexico meet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of arid drainages, including Sand Wash, Harris Wash, and Waters Wash, which carve through the high desert. Local landmarks such as Vanderbilt Peak, Charlie Hill, and the prominent Rim Rock provide navigation points across the broken topography of Carlisle Canyon and Iron Canyon.

Water sources are vital markers in this environment, with Goat Camp Spring and Mulberry Spring appearing alongside seasonal flows like Willow Creek and Bitter Creek. The map documents the rural infrastructure of Grant and Hidalgo counties, tracing routes like Carlisle Rd and Goatcamp Rd as they navigate the canyon systems. This record of the New Mexico-Arizona state line area preserves the names of early camps and natural features that have defined local geography for generations.
