2023 Map of Red Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

White Sands Missile Range dominates this high-desert landscape in Socorro and Lincoln counties, where military infrastructure meets a rugged network of natural springs and livestock water sources. The map illustrates a strictly managed environment where the topographic relief of Chupadera Mesa and Flat Top dictates the placement of early ranching and tactical infrastructure. Important water points such as Red Canyon Spring and family-named landmarks like R C Withers Tanks and Frenchman Tank reflect the area's grazing history before its integration into the missile range. Modern restricted access is indicated by the network of patrol roads, including WSMR P Route 11 and WSMR P Route 9, which traverse the arid basins and steep canyon walls.
