1996 Map of McLeod Tank

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Caballo Mountains and Mc Leod Hills dominate this high-desert landscape in southern New Mexico, where water management is the primary marker of human presence. Named for the essential infrastructure of the ranching economy, features like McLeod Tank, Broken House Tank, and Escondido Tank are distributed across the arid terrain to catch runoff. The map records the intersection of the Sierra and Doña Ana county line as it crosses through Redhouse Mountain. Settlement is sparse, represented by locations like Garfield and McLeod, with travel defined by drainages such as McLeod Draw and the broad Broadhurst arroyo. This provisional survey captures the region just before the turn of the 21st century, detailing a network of 4WD trails and unimproved roads that navigate the complex system of canyons including North Green Canyon.
