1952 Map of Dalies

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

El Cerro de los Lunas dominates the central landscape of this New Mexico quadrangle, surrounded by the remnants of prehistoric lava flows. The area is defined by complex land grant boundaries, including the San Clemente Grant and the Nicolas Duran de Chavez Grant, reflecting the region's deep Hispanic and Pueblo heritage. Along the western edge, the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad intersects at Dalies, a critical junction for the Belen High Line. Water management is evident in the southeastern corner near Los Lunas, where the Los Lunas Wasteway and several irrigation ditches like the Gabaldon Lateral support the local agriculture and the New Mexico Penitentiary Farm. Small settlements such as Paquita and Sandia appear along the rail lines, while resource exploration is marked by the Dallies Oil Well (Aband).
