Hockett sits at a high-desert crossroads where the boundaries of Sierra, Luna, and Doña Ana counties converge. This 2020 survey illustrates a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes, from the drainage of Placitas Arroyo in the northeast to the rising slopes of the Sierra de las Uvas in the southeast. The arid terrain is carved by significant geographic features like Horse Canyon and Thirtysix Canyon, which dictate the paths of local thoroughfares. Modern ranching and rural access are evidenced by a network of named tracks, including Long Bow Rd NE and Stetson Rd, alongside specialized routes such as Las Uvas Diary Rd. The map serves as a precise record of contemporary land management and topographical detail in this corner of southern New Mexico.
