1964 Map of Goat Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Butterfield Trail winds through this arid expanse of Luna County, tracing a historic path of westward expansion across the New Mexico desert. The landscape is defined by the prominent uplift of Goat Ridge and the nearby Fluorite Ridge, where the terrain's geological character is punctuated by drainage systems like Porter Draw and China Draw. The scarcity of water in this environment is evident through the reliance on scattered infrastructure, including Wilson Reservoir, China Tank, and isolated points like Butterfield Well and Prospect Spring.
