About this map

Lincoln National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in Otero County, where life in the mid-1940s revolved around isolated water sources and expansive cattle ranges. The map reveals the intricate network of water management essential for desert ranching, featuring numerous tanks such as Neal Tank and Bowman Tank, alongside specialized sites like Bates Windmill. Permanent habitation is centered on established homesteads including the Hardin Ranch and the Armstrong & Armstrong Headquarters Ranch.
