2023 Map of Woodson Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The Sacramento Mountains landscape of Otero County is defined by a dense network of canyons and high-elevation drainage basins. Small settlements like Mayhill and Weed are established along these natural corridors, where the Rio Peñasco and Agua Chiquita Creek have carved paths through the high country. Local history is anchored by sites such as the Lusk Cem near Graveyard Canyon, providing specific points of interest for genealogical research. Much of the southern and eastern territory is part of the Lincoln National Forest, characterized by numerous named tanks and small alpine bodies of water including Barkley Lake, Allen Lake, and Wilson Lake. The map reveals a complex system of forest and ranch roads, such as Miller Flats Rd and McDonald Flats Rd, which connect the scattered mountain flats and remote canyon reaches.
