2023 Map of Sierra Larga North

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Sierra Larga anchors this high-desert landscape in Socorro County, where complex drainage systems and volcanic landforms define the terrain. The northern section is dominated by the broad courses of Entraniosa Draw and Tecolote Draw, while the prominent elevations of Black Mesa and Brown Top provide significant landmarks. The map details a network of water catchment systems essential for ranching and wildlife in this arid environment, including Adolpho Tank, La May Tank, and Kessler Tank. To the south, the deep incision of Cibola Canyon and the flat-topped Mesa Redonda illustrate the dramatic geological transition between the mesa country and the rugged canyons. White Sands Missile Range access routes, such as WSMR S Route 3808, cross the township lines, marking the intersection of traditional land use and modern federal oversight.
