El Morro Ranch occupies the northern high desert landscape of this 2013 survey, where the open range is defined by the ephemeral drainage of Salado Cr. The terrain is marked by distinct geological features like Sotano Blanco, while the vast, arid expanse is primarily navigated via a grid of county roads, including CO Road 3F, CO Road 3J, and CO Road 3H. Cutting diagonally across the southwestern portion of the sheet, Us-60 provides the primary transit artery through this ranching territory. The map also delineates the jurisdictional boundary between Guadalupe and De Baca Counties, illustrating how historical land divisions persist in the modern management of this New Mexico cattle country.
