2013 Map of Rough and Ready Hills

About this map

Rough and Ready Hills and the Cedar Hills dominate this high-desert landscape in Doa Ana County, where the terrain is carved by a series of deep drainages. Significant topographic features include Foster Canyon, Silva Canyon, and Faulkner Canyon, which define the local watershed and movement across the arid range. This 2013 survey illustrates a landscape primarily managed for water conservation in a harsh environment, evidenced by the numerous named tanks and catchments like Bill Shaw Tank, Adobe Tank, and McCall Reservoir.
