White Sands Missile Range dominates this corner of Socorro County, a landscape defined by its strategic isolation and high-desert terrain. The topography is shaped by the convergence of several major ranges, including the San Andres Mountains, the Mockingbird Mountains, and the Little Burro Mountains. This map documents a restricted military corridor where traditional settlement is absent, replaced by a specialized network of government routes like WSMR P Route 7 and WSMR P Route 13.
