2001 Map of Rough And Ready Hills

USGS Topo · Published 2001

About this map

The Rough and Ready Hills dominate the southeastern portion of this Doña Ana County landscape, rising out of a terrain carved by numerous drainages. These arid uplands are defined by a network of seasonal water sources and canyons, including the prominent Lloyd Canyon and Coyote Canyon. The presence of small-scale water management is evident through various tanks and reservoirs, such as Silva Tank, Mc Call Reservoir, and the curiously named Marijuana Tank. These features suggest a landscape managed for livestock or local water needs in a region where moisture is scarce. Small settlements or localized family sites like Silva appear near Coyote Tank, while Bell Top Mountain provides a distinct landmark in the northwestern corner. The map traces the natural flow of the land through features like Candler Draw and Faulkner Canyon, documenting the fundamental environmental constraints and human adaptations in this part of New Mexico.
