About this map

Beenham stands as the primary namesake settlement in this section of Union County, situated along the northeastern high plains. The landscape is defined by the deep incisions of Tramperos Canyon, where Tramperos Creek meanders through the terrain before turning eastward. This drainage system is a critical geographic feature of the region, joined further north and east by Bushnell Creek.

Rural infrastructure is represented by a sparse network of local thoroughfares, including County Hwy C-015 on the western edge and County Road M to the south. These routes provide the only formalized access through the open country, connecting the scattered ranching interests that characterize this part of New Mexico. The map illustrates the topographic relationship between the high plateau and the erosional features of the local creek beds in the years following the turn of the millennium.
