2017 Map of Red Canyon

About this map

Chupadera Mesa dominates the northern skyline of this high-desert landscape where the border between Socorro Co and Lincoln Co cuts across the terrain. The map reveals a land managed for water and transport, defined by a network of tank systems essential for ranching or land management in this arid environment. Significant water features include Little Red Tank, School Section Tank, and the notably named Nolda Tank Number 1. This area is intersected by White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) infrastructure, as seen with WSMR P Route 11 and WSMR S Rt 335. The presence of Red Canyon Spring and the distinctive Flat Top landform provides key navigational markers within the varied topography of Red Canyon.
