USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Lion Mountain stands as a prominent high point in this corner of Socorro County, anchoring a landscape where the high desert transitions into the wooded slopes of the Cibola National Forest. This 2017 survey details the essential water infrastructure of a dry ranching landscape, noting features such as E Chavez Tank, Whiskey Well Tank, and Indian Tank. The mapping of these man-made water points alongside natural terrain like Antelope Flats and the Sand Hills reveals the critical relationship between topography and survival in this arid environment.
