About this map

Chicken Mountain and the high plateaus of Mesa De L Oro define this mid-century New Mexico landscape. The territory is a high-altitude expanse where survival and land use revolved around water management, evidenced by numerous man-made and natural catchments like Chicken Mtn Tank, Mule Tank, and Cerro Alesna Tanks. The presence of Pie Ranch and several windmills, including Virgils Windmill and Davy Windmill, points to the cattle ranching operations that utilized these isolated tracts in the 1960s.
