2010 Map of Ninemile Hill

About this map

Lordsburg Mesa dominates the northern reaches of this high-desert landscape in Hidalgo County, where the infrastructure of ranching defines the geography. The map captures a network of essential water features critical for livestock in an arid environment, including Odell Tank, Jones Tank, and Little Highway Tank. The terrain transitions from the broad expanse of the mesa toward Ninemile Hill and the seasonal drainage of Lordsburg Draw to the southeast.
