USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
The settlement of Piñon and the high desert ranchlands of Otero County are documented here in the mid-1960s. This ranching landscape is defined by an extensive network of water catchments essential for livestock, including Dipping Vat Tank, Richardson Lake, and Dean Tank. The terrain transitions from the wooded slopes of the Lincoln National Forest in the northwest to a complex system of drainage patterns such as Behringer Canyon, Bonita Canyon, and Stevens Draw.
