1990 Map of Benavidez Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

Rio Puerco defines the central axis of this high-desert landscape, cutting through a territory marked by complex jurisdictional boundaries and ranching history. The waterway is flanked by protective infrastructure, including a prominent Levee and a designated Road on Levee that facilitates movement through the river valley. To the west, the terrain rises into the Laguna Indian Reservation, while the southern reaches incorporate the Canoncito Navajo Indian Reservation. This 1990s record of Bernalillo and Sandoval counties highlights isolated ranching outposts such as Rio Puerco Ranch and Benavidez Ranch, which represent the enduring agrarian presence in a region dominated by the large land grant of the Town of Atrisco. The map reflects the intersection of tribal lands, historic grants, and the physical engineering required to manage water in the New Mexico arid lands.
