2020 Map of Jug Canyon

About this map

Nutt Mtn stands as a prominent landmark in this desert landscape of Sierra County, anchoring a terrain defined by deep drainages and dry arroyos. The map reveals a complex network of seasonal watercourses, including the notable Jug Canyon and Outlaw Canyon in the eastern reaches, which slice through the high-elevation flats. The presence of named features like Ricketson Draw and Sikes Draw suggests a history of cattle ranching or early travel routes through these arid corridors. Human activity is sparsely represented, primarily restricted to the solitary track of Co RD b011. To the south, Parks Canyon, Duran Canyon, and Tenaga Canyon converge, illustrating the severe erosional patterns that characterize this part of New Mexico. This survey provides a clear view of the natural boundaries and land divisions, documented under the Public Land Survey System for T18S and T19S.
