2017 Map of Bueyeros

About this map

Bueyeros stands as a focal point in this high plains landscape of northeastern New Mexico, where the terrain transitions into complex drainage systems and prominent landforms. The settlement is positioned along Gap Rd, near the head of a winding waterway that feeds into the broader basin. To the west, the massive uplift of Mesa Quitaras dominates the horizon, while the deeply incised Asperos Canyon and the southern Black Hills demonstrate the erosional forces typical of this arid region. The drainage of Del Muerto Cr cuts through the eastern portion of the survey, highlighting the sparse but vital water networks that once dictated ranching and settlement patterns. A grid of local routes like Gallagher Rd and Campbell Rd provides the primary infrastructure connecting these remote homesteads and grazing lands.
