1977 Map of Beenham SW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Bueyeros Creek and Ute Creek drain this landscape along the border of Union and Harding County during the 1970s. The map illustrates a rural ranching and resource economy, marked by scattered wells and gas wells. Local history and genealogy interest is concentrated at Cerrito de los Muertos, where a small cemetery and a lone church stand as landmarks of the sparse settlement pattern. A solitary grave is noted to the north, suggesting the quiet, isolated life of this high plains region. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Ventanas Creek and Salado Creek, which intersect the section lines of the public land survey system in this corner of Northeast New Mexico.
