El Morro Mesa and Conejo Mesa dominate this high-desert landscape in De Baca County, illustrating the topographical isolation typical of this region's cattle-ranching history. The map detail highlights a network of named rangeland roads, such as Buffalo Ridge Rd, Mustang Rd, and Red Horse Rd, which connect the remote Wright Ranch and Horney Ranch. These family-named landholdings represent the persistent legacy of open-country ranching in New Mexico.
