2020 Map of Field SE

About this map

Running Water Draw and Dead Horse Lake punctuate this high plains landscape in eastern New Mexico, where the terrain is defined by a rigorous grid of section lines and county roads. This 2020 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey shows a rural expanse of Curry County characterized by agricultural land management and sparse hydrologic features. The movement of water through this arid environment is traced by intermittent paths such as Creek AD and Creek AC, while the human footprint is established through an extensive network of named thoroughfares including Curry Road AH, Curry Road AF, and Curry Road AE. This map offers a clear view of the Public Land Survey System organization in the region, marking the intersections of several townships including t4n-r32e and t3n r33e.
