About this map

The Dr. Robert Goddard Original Rocket Tower Site anchors the southern reaches of this Chaves County landscape, marking a significant location in early aerospace history along the banks of Middle Berrendo Creek. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems including Salt Creek and the Eden Valley pipeline corridor, interspersed with vital water management features such as the Butler Windmill, Panther Windmill, and Tom Ned Tank. Local community life and industrial infrastructure are represented by the Salt Creek Ch and a Compressor Station, while numerous gravel pits point to the region's extraction activities. The map reveals a transition in land use, where traditional ranching landmarks like the Toltec Recorder Well coexist with modern utility developments across the plains surrounding Panther Hill.
