Luera Mountains dominate the southern landscape of this high-elevation quadrangle in Catron County. This 2017 study illustrates a sprawling network of desert peaks and deep canyons defined by the Public Land Survey System grids of t3s r11w, t4s r10w, and t5s r11w. The terrain is characterized by dramatic elevation changes and a sparse, remote road network typical of the New Mexico interior. Mapping from the U.S. Geological Survey reveals the intricate contouring of the slopes and the isolated natural lakes and dry washes that transition between the mountain ranges and the flatter basins to the north.
