2023 Map of Culp Ranch

About this map

The arid high plains of Chaves County are defined here by a sparse network of ranching infrastructure and boundary lines. Centered on the eastern edge of the Pecos River valley, the landscape is organized by the Public Land Survey System, with the intersection of t11s r29e, t11s r30e, t12s r29e, and t12s r30e marking the division of these remote rangelands. Transport through the area is limited to local tracks and secondary corridors such as Inez Rd and Co Rd 57, which provide the primary access to private grazing lands. Water management is critical in this environment, evidenced by the presence of Adams Tank, a vital catchment for livestock that serves as one of the few named landmarks in this expansive New Mexico terrain.
