2020 Map of Red Bluff Draw East

About this map

Red Bluff defines this high-desert landscape in Lincoln County, where seasonal drainage patterns have carved a complex network of arroyos and canyons. This 2020 survey details the varied topography of the t3s r15e and t2s r16e townships, focusing on the intricate waterway systems including North Canyon, Jesus Canyon, and Bonita Canyon. The arid terrain is navigated by a sparse grid of rural routes such as Hackberry Rd and Vawter Rd, connecting isolated landmarks like Washburn. The map illustrates the hydrological importance of Red Bluff Draw and Hackberry Draw, which channel the limited rainfall through the rugged basins toward Gallo Arroyo. These features provide critical context for understanding the ranching and land-management history of this central New Mexico region.
