1988 Map of Lucky Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Well Camp and a network of essential water sources anchor this arid landscape of Chaves County, where survival relied on isolated wells and windmills. The terrain is defined by dramatic drainage patterns, including Antelope Draw, Made Well Draw, and Zubi Draw, which navigate the elevation changes between Twin Butte Canyon and Monument Canyon. This late-1980s provisional survey illustrates the infrastructure of ranching and remote operations, featuring a Landing Strip and named water stations such as Horse Pasture Windmill, Four Point Well, and West Frazier Windmill. The presence of small water bodies like Lucky Lake and Deep Lake amidst the high desert underscores the importance of these rare catchments in a region where named landmarks are often defined by the presence of a pump or a natural basin.
