2020 Map of Salinas Peak NW

About this map

High desert terrain defines this landscape along the border of Socorro and Sierra counties in New Mexico. The area is characterized by vast open stretches of public land, with few man-made landmarks interrupting the natural topography. Fuller Rd provides limited access into this region, which relies on vital water sources like Anderson Tank for local utility in an otherwise arid environment. This 2020 survey illustrates the transition from the T9S to T11S townships, highlighting the expansive and undeveloped nature of the White Sands Missile Range periphery. The terrain is marked by gentle contouring and natural drainage patterns, representative of the high-altitude basin and range geography typical of this part of the state.
