North Cottonwood Cr and South Cottonwood Cr define the hydrological character of this landscape at the boundary of Chaves Co and Eddy Co. The terrain is marked by an intricate network of drainage features, including the uniquely named Paris Dainwood Draw and Goaty Canyon. These features illustrate the erosion patterns across the high desert plains of New Mexico. Human presence is concentrated near the J X Ranch, while a sparse network of thoroughfares like W Pearson Rd and CO Road 129 provides access through the various canyons and draws. This survey provides a record of land use and topographic detail in a region where water and relief dictate the placement of ranching outposts and transportation routes.
