About this map

Rio Felix and Eagle Creek define the arid drainage patterns across this part of Chaves County, where water resources are vital to the ranching landscape. The terrain is marked by significant geographic features including Big Ox Yoke Canyon, Little Ox Yoke Canyon, and the sprawling path of Monument Draw. These natural depressions guide the limited runoff toward Singer Lake in the southern portion of the quadrangle.

Functional infrastructure for water management is a primary feature of this 2010 survey, with several named landmarks such as Juniper Windmill, Monument Windmill, and West Singer Windmill distributed across the range. These sites, along with Felix Canyon Rd and Helena Rd, indicate a landscape primarily utilized for livestock and land management rather than dense settlement, preserving the character of rural New Mexico.
