1968 Map of Bard

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Bard serves as a central point of reference in this landscape of the New Mexico plains, where the C R I & P railroad tracks cut a diagonal path across the southern terrain. This late-1960s survey illustrates a region defined by its water management and transportation corridors, notably featuring the iconic Highway 66 running parallel to the rail line. The reliance on subterranean water in this arid environment is evident through a scattered network of named landmarks such as North Windmill, Salty Windmill, and Twin Windmills. To the southeast, the Endee Cem stands near the banks of Trujillo Creek, providing a significant touchstone for genealogists. The topography is further shaped by drainage patterns from Frost Creek and industrial activity at a local Gravel Pit, reflecting a rural economy tied to both the land and the transit routes heading toward the Texas border.
