Coyote sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape in Lincoln County, where the plains meet the eastern fringes of the Lincoln National Forest. The topography is dominated by the massive profile of Lone Mtn and the distinct spine of Hogback Ridge. This 2020 survey reveals a land defined by its water management, with numerous named tanks such as Bond Spring Tank, Canyon Tank, and Post Corral Tank scattered across the township lines. These features, along with Collier Spring, highlight the essential infrastructure required for ranching and survival in this arid environment. The map provides a clear view of the transition from the relatively open terrain near Coyote Canyon and Ancho Gulch to the complex elevations within the national forest boundary.
