1969 Map of Buffalo Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Buffalo Springs serves as a central landmark in this high-plains landscape of eastern New Mexico, where the availability of water dictated the pattern of ranching and settlement. The winding path of Ute Creek and its tributaries, including Tequesquite Creek and Mosquero Creek, provide the primary relief in the terrain. This environment supported established family operations like Baca Ranch, Casados Ranch, and Garcia Ranch, which relied on a widespread network of wells and windmills to maintain livestock across the arid range.
