1996 Map of Picacho Mountain
USGS Topo · Published 2002About this map
Picacho Mountain and the surrounding high desert terrain dominate this mid-1990s survey of the landscape west of Las Cruces. The map documents a diverse mix of land use, from the residential boundaries of the Mesilla Civil Colony and Tract No 2 to the expansive runways of the Las Cruces International Airport. The arid geography is defined by deep cuts like Apache Canyon and Box Canyon, where a Box Canyon Dam indicates efforts to manage seasonal water flow in a landscape otherwise dotted with livestock infrastructure like Hawkins East Tank.
