2023 Map of Lumley Lake NW

About this map

White Sands Missile Range dominates this arid Sierra County landscape, where restrictive military boundaries overlay the natural drainages of the Tularosa Basin. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Salt Creek, which flows through the center of the sheet, joined by seasonal waters from Sweetwater Creek and Good Fortune Creek. This survey captures the specialized infrastructure of the range, documenting an extensive network of numbered security and access roads, such as WSMR P Route 7 and WSMR S Route 299, that crisscross the high desert. The absence of civilian settlements reflects the area's long-standing use for defense testing, while the underlying Public Land Survey System grid reveals the original township and range divisions that preceded military acquisition.
