2013 Map of Bulldog Mesa

About this map

Bulldog Mesa and Mesa Redonda dominate this portion of Quay County, New Mexico, where the high desert landscape is defined by its drainage basins and isolated ranching outposts. This 2013 survey reveals a traditional land-use pattern where water management is paramount, centered on Regulator Reservoir Number 2 and the seasonal flows of Plaza Larga Cr and Apodaca Cr. The map preserves the locations of generational family properties, including Stallard Ranch, Parker Ranch, and Fife Ranch, which are connected by a gridded network of rural routes such as Quay Road 58 and NM-209. For genealogists and local historians, the inclusion of Newhome Cem and Apodaca Cem provides critical points for tracing the community's ancestral ties to this arid ranching frontier.
