Waggoner Ranch and its associated Bell-Ranch Waggoner Airport center this ranching landscape in San Miguel County. The terrain is defined by a complex network of canyons and mesas, with Huerfano Mesa rising prominently in the south and Hole-in-the-Wall Canyon cutting through the northern reaches. This modern survey illustrates the enduring nature of the large-scale cattle operations in this part of New Mexico, where infrastructure like Mule Creek Dr follows the natural contours of the drainage systems. Water courses such as La Cinta Cr, Mule Cr, and Devils Cr navigate between named formations including Carpenter Canyon and Seventyfour Canyon, revealing a land where topographical features dictate the placement of roads and remote airfields.
