2020 Map of Prisor Hill

About this map

Spaceport America stands as a modern focal point in this portion of Sierra County, marking a shift toward aerospace industry in the high desert. The landscape is defined by extensive drainage networks, including the long stretches of Jornada Draw, Aleman Draw, and Yoast Draw, which cut through the arid terrain. These natural features represent the primary hydrology of the region, where water management is crucial as evidenced by East Tank Number 3. Infrastructure consists largely of utility corridors and access routes such as Powerline Rd, Pipeline Rd, and Lewis Rd, which facilitate transport across the large township and range blocks. The map illustrates a transition from traditional land use toward technological development while maintaining the sparse, open character of the New Mexico basin.
