The Pecos River carves a winding path through this corner of Eddy County, defining the agricultural and desert landscape east of Artesia. This 2023 survey illustrates the modern footprint of settlements like Atoka and Riverside, where residential streets meet the arid drainages of the Pecos Valley. The terrain is marked by a series of prominent draws and canyons, including Dog Canyon Draw, Hart Canyon, and Logan Draw, which serve as natural conduits for seasonal runoff toward the river. To the southwest, Spring Lake remains a notable hydrologic feature near the branching roads of E Atoka Rd and S Haldeman Rd. The map detail follows the transition from the organized grid of the city outskirts to the more intermittent ranch roads like Chalk Bluff Rd and Little Diamond Rd as they move into the open rangeland.
