Ranger Lake anchors the southern landscape of this Lea County quadrangle, a sparse desert basin defined by its essential water infrastructure. The distribution of infrastructure reveals a cattle-ranching economy reliant on scattered wells, including Bull Windmill, Mixon Windmill, and North Pasture Windmill. This 2013 survey shows how the land is partitioned into a geometric grid, with NM-206 cutting a north-south line through the center of the terrain.
