1982 Map of Lumley Lake NE

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

White Sands Missile Range dominates this orthophotomap of the arid Tularosa Basin, where the stark desert landscape is captured through aerial photography from the early 1970s. The map reveals a land dedicated to military and archaeological interest, marked by the Denver Site in the north and the N E 50 Site further south. This specialized 1980s edition uses an orthophotomosaic base to show the distribution of brush and alkaline flats across the Sierra Co Otero Co boundary. Water sources are vital but sparse in this environment, represented by infrastructure like Crossroad Tank, Turner Lake, and Big Tank. The presence of a Gravel Pit and scattered wells such as Turner Well point to the logistical requirements of maintaining operations in this restricted military zone.
