2017 Map of P O L Ranch

About this map

P O L Ranch sits at the center of this 2017 survey, representing a solitary human footprint within the arid basin and range landscape of the West Potrillo Mountains. The map documents a sparsely populated corner of the desert southwest, where access is defined by the Pol Ranch Rd and water resources like Black Hills Tank are critical markers on the land. The topography is dominated by volcanic features and peaks, notably the prominent Eagle Nest and the Black Hills, which rise distinctly above the surrounding flats. This map clearly delineates the border between Luna and Doña Ana counties, showing how these political boundaries bisect the high desert. The lack of dense infrastructure highlights a region dedicated to ranching and open space, providing a detailed record of the terrain and drainage patterns in a quiet corner of New Mexico.
