1969 Map of Fuentes Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Fuentes Ranch serves as the focal point of this arid landscape in northeastern New Mexico, where life is defined by a sparse network of water sources. The map documents an era of cattle ranching where named wells and windmills—such as South Honeycutt Windmill, Manuel Fuentes Well, and the Old Horse Pasture Well—are the primary landmarks across the high plains. Evidence of local community life is centered near the ranch at Hapova Ch and an adjacent Cem, along with a lone Grave located further south toward Ute Creek. The topography is marked by numerous draws and plateaus, with a significant Drill Hole and the Well on the Hill illustrating the practical efforts to sustain agriculture in Harding County. This 1969 field-checked survey provides a meticulous record of the ranching infrastructure and family-named land features essential to the regional economy.
