1974 Map of Farley

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Farley and the surrounding high plains of northeastern New Mexico are defined by a network of drainage channels and cattle-ranching infrastructure in this mid-1970s survey. The landscape is etched with the courses of Sand Arroyo, Wilson Arroyo, and Holkeo Creek, where Muller Dam manages the scarce water resources of the region. This area, spanning the Colfax and Union County line, shows a sparse but organized settlement pattern. The map identifies specific property locations such as the Hacienda de los Muchachos and Anderson Well, reflecting the long-standing ranching traditions of the territory. Industrial activity is minimal but present, noted by a Gravel Pit and scattered wells, including Lanier Lake. The detailed inclusion of fence lines throughout the quadrangle highlights the importance of land division and range management in this remote section of the state.
