Vicks Peak and San Mateo Peak dominate this high-altitude landscape within the Cibola National Forest in Socorro County. The terrain is defined by a dense network of canyons and arroyos, including Smith Canyon, Deep Canyon, and the Red Rock Arroyo. This environment relies heavily on a system of springs and tanks to manage water in the arid climate, with features such as San Mateo Spring, Rock Head Dam Tank, and Whitetail Tank scattered throughout the territory.
