Hagerman and Lake Arthur anchor this high-plains landscape in Chaves County, where the Rio Felix meanders toward its confluence with the Pecos River. The map documents a structured grid of rural roads and irrigation-influenced hydrology, characteristic of the Pecos Valley's agricultural development. Water management is a primary theme of the terrain, visible through features like Lake Tolliver, Prichard Lakes, and Buffalo Lake, which contrast with the dry surroundings of Long Arroyo. Local history and genealogy interests are well-served by the inclusion of the Hagerman Cem and smaller localized settlements such as Mossman and Buffalo Valley. Large-scale land use is represented by the King Ranch and Buffalo Valley Farm, illustrating the region's reliance on ranching and organized farming near the river's fertile corridor.
