1981 Map of Wrye Peak NW

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Bingham PO serves as the primary landmark in this high-desert region of Socorro County, where survival and settlement are tied to a complex network of water features. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, notably Hale Canyon, Yellow Dog Canyon, and the Chupadera Arroyo, which cut through the arid terrain. Ranching infrastructure is pervasive, documented through numerous named water sources such as White Well, Myer Well, West Well, and Glover Well. These features, alongside specialized structures like Washtub Tank and Morton Tank, indicate a land managed for livestock in the early 1980s. Connectivity across this desert environment is limited to a few improved roads and a primitive Jeep Trail, illustrating the isolation of this corner of New Mexico during the late twentieth century.
