1981 Map of Duoro

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts a diagonal path through this arid high-desert landscape, creating a lifeline through the ranchlands of eastern New Mexico. This 1981 survey reveals a territory where survival and settlement are dictated by water access, marked by a network of family and descriptive landmarks such as Loma Alta Well, Heifer Pasture Well, and Rock Tank Well. The small settlement of Duoro sits along the tracks, serving as a remote outpost in a region primarily defined by expansive grazing operations like Byrd Ranch. The map also captures the political geography of the area, illustrating the boundary between Guadalupe Co and De Baca Co. Topographic details and scattered infrastructure, including a Drill Hole and several storage tanks, suggest the persistent efforts to harness the subsurface resources of this high-plateau environment.
