1996 Map of Taylor Well

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The Jornada Experimental Range and the White Sands Test Facility dominate this high-desert landscape in Doña Ana County, reflecting the region's mid-to-late 20th-century history of agricultural research and aerospace testing. The arid terrain is punctuated by a network of water management features essential for range life, including Frog Tank, Warner Tank, and Shoe Bar Tank. Centered around the Jornada Experimental Range Headquarters, the area showcases a sparse but functional infrastructure of wells such as Taylor Well and South Well. A remote Landing Strip and the expansive boundaries of the White Sands Missile Range underscore the federal government's significant footprint here, where experimental ranching operations and cutting-edge space technology shared the same vast basin.
