About this map

Salt flats and ephemeral basins dominate the northern terrain of this 1981 Torrance County landscape, where the arid high-desert environment is punctuated only by vital water sources like localized Springs. The mapping reveals a sparse settlement pattern characteristic of this portion of New Mexico, centered on the Going Thing Ranch. Beyond the livestock operations, the presence of a Drill Hole and a scattered Well indicate the ongoing human efforts to tap into subsurface resources in a region otherwise defined by its undulating topography and saline depressions. The map serves as a detailed record of land use and water management in a demanding environment during the early 1980s.
