2010 Map of Tularosa

About this map

Tularosa sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape, where the organized grid of the town meets a vast network of drainage systems and springs. The settlement is defined by its relationship with Tularosa Creek, which flows from the east toward the town center, where the Tularosa Post Office remains a central landmark. The surrounding terrain is marked by a series of significant draws, including Allen Draw, Reagan Draw, and Gullez Draw, which illustrate the complex desert hydrology of the Tularosa Basin. To the north, the Coyote Hills rise above a landscape dotted with isolated water sources like Lomitas Spring and Brazel Spring. Local agriculture and ranching history are evident in the presence of Purday Ranch and a dense network of farm-to-market roads, such as Tularosa Farm Rd and Old Champion Farm Rd, reflecting the area's long-standing reliance on carefully managed desert water and rural connectivity.
