About this map

Alamogordo Valley defines the lower elevations of this landscape, where Alamogordo Cr winds through the southern portion of the quadrangle. The terrain rises significantly toward the north, culminating in the expansive Luciano Mesa and the intricate drainage patterns of Bull Canyon. This 2020 survey reveals a quiet, ranching-oriented network of local roads including Major Rd, Valley Rd, and Red Rock Rd.

For local historians and genealogists, the presence of the Ruth Cem situated near Anderson Rd provides a specific point of interest in this sparsely populated area. The boundary between Guadalupe and Quay Counties is marked along the eastern edge, showing how modern property and political lines follow the natural contours of the high plains. The map captures the transition from the creek bottomlands up to the high mesa flats.
