2020 Map of Cooper Ranch

About this map

Cooper Ranch serves as the primary landmark in this section of the High Plains, situated just south of the boundary between Guadalupe Co and De Baca Co. The landscape is defined by the intermittent drainage of Salado Cr, which carves a path through the arid terrain of east-central New Mexico. This 2020 survey illustrates a sparse settlement pattern dominated by large land holdings and a network of rural routes, including Salado Rd and Shady Rock Rd. The map provides a clear look at the Public Land Survey System divisions, with several townships and ranges converging here, reflecting the orderly grid typical of Western land management. Local county roads such as Co Rd 1-31 and Co Rd 3 C H connect the remote ranching properties across this high-desert environment.
