2017 Map of Beenham

About this map

Beenham sits in the northeastern high plains of New Mexico, appearing here as a quiet settlement defined by the canyonlands and seasonal watercourses of Union County. The landscape is deeply incised by Tramperos Canyon, where the drainage of Tramperos Cr and Bushnell Cr creates a complex network of breaks and draws across the plateau. This 2017 survey reveals a region primarily organized by large-scale ranching or agricultural divisions, as evidenced by the prominent Public Land Survey System grids such as t23n r30e and t23n r31e. Connectivity in this isolated stretch of the state relies on a handful of graded routes, including Pasamonte Rd and Co Rd C023, which navigate the elevation changes between the level tablelands and the canyon floor.
