2017 Map of North Lake

About this map

Arroyo del Macho winds through this arid New Mexico landscape, a region defined by its water management and infrastructure near the border of Lincoln and Chaves counties. The terrain is marked by a series of specialized catchments including Percella Tank, Sec Tank, and the namesake North Lake, highlighting the critical role of water storage in this high-desert environment. A network of local infrastructure such as Pipe Line Rd and Stargrass Rd provides the primary means of traversal across the township lines. The topography is further shaped by Plate Canyon in the northeast and Middle Arroyo in the southwest, while Big Tank sits near the southern boundary, illustrating a landscape primarily organized around land surveying and resource access.
