Upham and the high desert of Sierra County appear in this 2010 survey, defined by the infrastructure of ranching and resource management in a semi-arid landscape. The map shows a region crisscrossed by dry washes such as Aleman Draw and Yoast Draw, where water is managed through sites like Miller Tank and the Jornada Number Three Dam. Significant acreage is dedicated to Elephant Butte Lake State Park along the western boundary, while the interior is marked by the presence of landmarks like the Birner Windmill and the Lyons-Slater Ranch.
