1989 Map of Sixteenmile Draw West

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Rio Peñasco meanders through this portion of Chaves County, defining a landscape carved by seasonal watercourses and complex canyon systems. The terrain is dominated by the deeply incised Little Cuevo Canyon and the broad drainage of Charley White Draw, reflecting the arid environment of southeastern New Mexico. These geographical features illustrate the natural drainage patterns that have historically dictated ranching and land use in the region. Near the northern edge of the sheet, Singer Lake provides a rare point of surface water, serving as a vital landmark in an otherwise dry, rugged upland. This 1989 provisional edition, based on earlier aerial photography and field checks, captures the topographic character of the Chaves County high plains before modern infrastructure significantly altered the traditional landscape.
