2013 Map of Cedarvale

About this map

Cedarvale serves as the primary settlement anchor in this high-plains landscape where Torrance and Lincoln counties meet. The terrain is defined by the significant transition from open ranchlands to the wooded slopes of the Cibola National Forest. Dominant landmarks such as Cougar Mtn and N Peak overlook a network of livestock infrastructure, characterized by numerous isolated water sources like Corona Lake Tank and Middle Tank. The distribution of Herring Windmill and Shartzer Windmill across the range illustrates the critical importance of groundwater for the local ranching economy. This map details the rural road network, including Pinos Wells Rd and State Rte 42, which connect historic ranching operations like the Miller Ranch and Fox Ranch to the broader region.
