2023 Map of Melena

About this map

The Pecos River corridor defines this landscape in Chaves County, where the transition from arid flats to riparian wetlands creates a distinct ecological boundary. The Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge and the Salt Creek Wilderness dominate the eastern half of the map, protecting a series of unique aquatic features such as the Ink Pots and the serpentine course of Salt Creek. These water sources represent a critical intersection of desert and marshland in a region defined by its hydrology.
