2023 Map of Fallon Ranch

About this map

Mount Zion Cem sits in the high desert of Guadalupe County, serving as a quiet landmark amidst a network of drainage channels and ranch roads. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of the Arroyo San Juan de Dios in the west and the Arroyo Potrillo in the east, which carve through the terrain as they gather seasonal runoff. This modern survey reflects the enduring spatial organization of New Mexico’s eastern plains, where the Public Land Survey System grid sections—ranging from t8n r23e down to t6n r24e—remain the primary framework for land ownership and movement. A sparse network of unpaved corridors such as Sneed Rd and Werthco Rd connect the isolated ranching tracts, illustrating the low-density settlement patterns and the reliance on natural watercourses to define the territory.
