About this map

Regina sits at the base of the San Pedro Mountains, serving as a central hub for ranching and energy extraction in the mid-1960s. The settlement is anchored by the Regina Cem and lies just east of the Jicarilla Apache Indian Reservation Boundary. The landscape is defined by the Continental Divide, which separates the eroded terrain of the Badlands from the high, forested reaches of the San Pedro Parks Wilderness.

Industrial development is evident through numerous Gas Well sites and Drill Hole locations scattered across the northern sections, particularly near Largo Creek. Water resources are sparse but critical, marked by Hatch Lake, Williams Lake, and various springs like San Jose Spring. The convergence of San Jose Creek and Arroyo Naranjo highlights the complex drainage patterns flowing from the high country into the lower basins.
