2017 Map of Holt Tank

About this map

Holt Tank sits near the heart of this high-plains landscape, where the boundary between Chaves and Eddy Counties bisects a complex drainage system. The terrain is defined by a series of named ephemeral watercourses, including the prominent Catclaw Draw, Fourmile Draw, and the deeply incised Crooked Canyon. This 2017 survey reveals an area primarily utilized for ranching and water management, evidenced by the network of unpaved access roads like Bronc Rd and Hobble Rd that crisscross the arid land. The map provides a detailed view of the local topography, marking specific landmarks such as Collier Tank Draw and Gardner Draw which are critical to understanding the hydrology of this New Mexico region.
