2020 Map of Taylor Well

About this map

Taylor Well and its surrounding water infrastructure define this high-desert reach of Doña Ana County, where a network of stock tanks and seasonal drainages supports local ranching operations. The landscape is marked by the presence of numerous named water sources such as White Bottom Tank, Shoellar Tank, and Brockoway Tank, which serve as vital points in an otherwise arid expanse. In the eastern portion of the map, the terrain levels out at Ragged Tank Flat near Bear Cr. To the south, modern residential development begins to emerge with street names like Doubletree St and Singletree signaling a transition from open rangeland to rural homesteads. The map illustrates the dependence on roads like Taylor Well Rd and N Jornada Rd to connect these isolated water features across the desert floor.
