2023 Map of Tucson Spring

About this map

Tucson Spring provides a vital water source in this arid high-desert landscape situated along the border of Socorro Co and Sierra Co. This 2023 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates the spare, open geography of the region, where topographic contours define a series of subtle rises and drainage basins. Human activity is evidenced primarily by an established road network, most notably the path of Naval Site Rd which enters the southwestern portion of the map. The minimal infrastructure and lack of named settlements reflect a preserved wilderness or government-managed territory, characteristic of the remote expanses between New Mexico's larger population centers.
