2023 Map of Mountain Tank

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Fort Bliss dominates the western portion of this high-desert landscape, where the rugged terrain of the Hueco Mountains meets the vast military reservation near the New Mexico-Texas state line. The map reveals a specialized arid-land water infrastructure, essential for both livestock and military operations, marked by features such as Grey Tank, Red House Tanks, and Wallbridge Tank. These catchments are critical landmarks in a region defined by dramatic elevation changes, from the heights of Red Hill to the drainage of Castner Draw. Modern ranching and military access are represented by local routes including Co Rd F001 and Co Rd F002, which cross the boundaries of Otero and Hudspeth counties. The placement of these water sources and tracks illustrates the ongoing human adaptation to the Chihuahuan Desert environment.
