2013 Map of Weatherly Lake

About this map

Weatherly Ranch and the small settlement of Hittson anchor this high plains landscape in northeastern New Mexico. The area is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including the North Branch and South Branch of Corrumpa Creek, which flow through the northern half of the quadrangle. Weatherly Lake serves as a central hydrological point, while Lonesome Rock provides a distinct topographical landmark near the upper reaches of the creek branches. This survey highlights the traditional ranching infrastructure of Union County, tracing a grid of rural roads such as Severo Road and Hittson Road that connect isolated properties and water sources like Black Springs. In the southern portion, the terrain slopes toward Rafael Creek, Sand Creek, and Seneca Creek, illustrating the complex watershed patterns typical of this semi-arid region during the early twenty-first century.
