I'd say spot on! Every commercial flight west from LBB has stopped in ELP or ABQ for many years, so I've probably touched down there 100 times or more. The area to the north & east is part of Fort Bliss' large military reserve, mostly flat, almost all desert, definitely no buildings for several miles.

Of note is that there are mountains that are quite prominent to the west and northwest of the airport, but not to the south.
