2010 Map of Gacho Hill

About this map

Joffre stands as a quiet outpost in this high plains landscape of Guadalupe County, New Mexico, during the early 21st century. The terrain is defined by the prominent Gacho Hill, which overlooks a network of rural routes and ranching properties. A sparse but essential infrastructure of roads, including County Rd-30 and County Rd-31, connects the various family holdings scattered across the territory. The presence of Mitchell Ranch and Carde Ranch highlights the enduring legacy of open-range land use in this part of the Southwest. This survey reflects the modern configuration of property lines and access roads that underpin the ranching economy, providing a clear record of the region's geographic layout before further contemporary development.
