2023 Map of Gacho Hill

About this map

Joffre stands as the primary named settlement in this high-plains landscape, situated along the diagonal corridor of US Route 285 in Guadalupe County. This modern survey reflects the persistent sparse population of the region, where the terrain is dominated by the namesake Gacho Hill and a network of county roads that crisscross the arid environment. A distinct grid of township and range lines, including t3n r17e and t2n r18e, defines the land divisions, while named thoroughfares like Rica Rd and the whimsically named Jackalope Rd provide the only significant markers of human activity. The map reveals a land of wide-open spaces and large-scale ranching plots, where small livestock ponds or tanks serve as vital water sources for the cattle industry that has long sustained this part of New Mexico.
