1982 Map of Lost River

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

White Sands Missile Range and Holloman Air Force Base dominate this Otero County landscape, where the stark desert terrain of shifting sand meets federal military infrastructure. The map reveals the functional layout of the base, including several observation towers and a radio tower positioned along the high speed test track. Beyond the military boundaries, the natural drainage of the Lost River basin and intermittent watercourses like Sheep Draw and Hay Draw illustrate the harsh hydrology of the Tularosa Basin.
