The Santa Fe National Historic Trail cuts a diagonal path across the arid terrain of Otero County, following the ancestral route near Timpas Creek. This landscape is defined by the expansive Comanche National Grassland, where the drainage patterns of Crooked Arroyo and Benton Arroyo dictate the topography. In the mid-1990s, the area remained largely undeveloped, characterized by wide-open grazing lands and essential water management features like Browning and Reese Reservoir No 1 and Crooked Arroyo Reservoir No 1.
