2023 Map of McVeigh Hills

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

McVeigh Hills and the prominent Black Mountain anchor this arid landscape in southern Otero County. The region is defined by a network of seasonal drainage channels, including the sprawling Cornudas Draw, North Draw, and Chess Draw, which move water through the basin during rare rain events. Human presence in this high-desert environment is marked by an extensive system of livestock watering points such as Mule Tank, Gopher Tank, and the notably named C C C Tank, suggesting historical land use tied to ranching. A grid of county roads, including Dell City Rd and Co RD f019, provides access across the township and range lines of the southern New Mexico borderlands. The terrain rises toward the southeast near Wind Mountain Draw, illustrating the transition from open draws to more significant relief.
