Cottonwood Flats occupies the southern reaches of this high-desert landscape in Sandoval County, where seasonal drainages carve a complex network of arroyos across the terrain. The hydrological character of the region is defined by the significant reaches of Cañada Alemita and Cañada Alamos, which wind through the township grids. These natural watercourses are supplemented by vital water sources such as Ojo Sandoval Spring and Ojo Socorro. Industrial and utility infrastructure is prominent throughout the area, marked by a systematic grid of access ways including Pipeline Rd and Indian Svc Rte 46. This 2023 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a detailed record of the intersections between natural landforms and the service roads that facilitate modern land use and resource management in this corner of New Mexico.
