About this map

The Union County and Harding County line bisects this high-plains landscape, where the terrain is defined by the sharp draws and drainages of Church Creek and Ventanas Creek. In the southwestern corner, the distinctive landform of Cerrito de los Muertos stands as a prominent landmark above the surrounding flats. This region is sparsely settled, characterized by a grid of county roads and historic grazing lands that reflect the expansive ranching heritage of northeastern New Mexico.

A network of local routes like Pasamonte Road, Campbell Road, and Gallagher Road provides the primary infrastructure for navigating this section of the state. These roads follow the natural contours of the land, connecting disparate holdings across the surveyed townships of T22N R30E and T21N R31E. The map detail is focused on the physical geography and the enduring boundaries between these two counties.
