About this map

The Sacramento Mountains define this high-altitude landscape along the border of Otero and Chaves counties. This 2013 survey of the Lincoln National Forest illustrates a complex network of drainages and seasonal water sources essential for land management. Named canyons such as Robertson Canyon, Angel Canyon, and Big Cherry Canyon carve through the terrain, while the course of Bluewater Cr winds through the southern reaches.

Evidence of ranching and land use is visible in the numerous livestock water features, including Buzzard Tank, Mule Canyon Tank, and the S Pasture Tank Number 1. For local history and genealogy, the Cox Cem serves as a small but significant human landmark within the forest boundaries. The map also detail topographic features like McDonald Flat and Mule Ridge, alongside small upland water bodies like Hale Lake and Boat Lake.
