About this map

The Jornada Experimental Range Reserve dominates this high-desert landscape in Doña Ana County, reflecting the region's mid-century focus on agricultural research and military land use. The presence of the Military Reservation Bdy underscores the area's strategic importance during the 1950s. Water management is the defining human footprint here, visible through a network of specialized tanks and catchments essential for ranching and research in the arid Jornada basin.
