2020 Map of Dilia

About this map

Pecos River valley settlements define this portion of the New Mexico landscape, where the historic communities of Llano del Medio, Dilia, and Upper Dilia follow the river's winding course. These villages are connected by a network of local routes such as Dilia Loop and La Morada Rd, reflecting a long-standing agricultural and residential pattern tied to the water. The surrounding terrain is characterized by dramatic landforms including the Mesa de la Chamizalosa and deep drainages like Cañon Blanco and Cañon de Rancho Alegre. Strategic water sources are vital in this arid environment, marked by named points like Salitre Spring, Chupinas Spring, and Estritos Spring. The map also delineates the jurisdictional boundary between San Miguel Co and Guadalupe Co, showing how contemporary political lines intersect with the traditional geography of the valley.
