2013 Map of Loco Canyon

About this map

Rio Felix meanders through the southern portion of this landscape, anchoring a network of canyons and drainage systems in Chaves County. This 2013 survey illustrates a rural ranching environment where water management is central to the land's utility, marked by features such as Janey Tank and Crooked Cr. The terrain is deeply incised by named geographic features including Loco Canyon, Morgan Canyon, and Salt House Canyon. Transport in the area is defined by winding gravel and dirt routes, notably Picacho Canyon Rd and Felix Canyon Rd, which connect remote outposts like the R Vandewart Ranch. The presence of the Flying H Ranch Airport and the descriptively named Old Schoolhouse Rd suggests a history of localized infrastructure serving isolated homesteads and grazing lands.
