1947 Map of Faywood Station

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Faywood Station serves as the primary focal point of this arid landscape, situated along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line. The map captures a high-desert environment defined by significant drainage patterns, where the San Vicente Arroyo and Whitewater Creek cut through the terrain. A notable topographical feature is the Hogback ridge located in the southwestern section, while the presence of Warm Springs suggests a vital water source in an otherwise dry region. The boundary line for Grant Co Luna Co runs through the lower third of the map, illustrating the administrative divide between these two southern New Mexico counties. Numerous Windmill labels scattered across the flats emphasize the area's reliance on groundwater for ranching and transit along the rail corridor during the late 1940s.
