The White Sands Missile Range dominates this landscape in Socorro County, New Mexico, where the desert flats meet the rising slopes of the Oscura Mountains. This modern survey illustrates the restricted military infrastructure of the region, defined by a network of service roads such as WSMR P Route 13 and WSMR S Route 341. The terrain is characterized by its arid geography, with seasonal hydrology represented by features like Story East Tank and the drainage of Salt Creek at the southeastern edge of the quadrangle. As a modern digital product, it utilizes the latest geospatial standards to detail the vast, undeveloped areas that have been part of this high-security military installation for decades.
