1963 Map of Arroyo Landavaso

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Cibola National Forest boundaries define the northeastern and southeastern portions of this 1963 landscape, where the high desert terrain is carved by seasonal watercourses. The network of drainages including Arroyo Landavaso, Arroyo Gato, and Arroyo Montosa dictates the location of local ranching infrastructure. Named water sources such as Rock Springs and Texas Spring are critical landmarks in this arid environment, while the presence of scattered improvements like Boxcar Well, Rabbe Well, and Stallings Tank suggests a reliance on groundwater for livestock. The terrain is punctuated by significant elevations such as Cerro Pelon and the steep walls of Agua Frio Canyon. These features illustrate a mid-century period where land use in Socorro County remained centered on range management and water conservation, centered around the Landavaso Reservoir.
