2020 Map of Gacho Hill SE

About this map

Manzanita Lake and several man-made water catchments define the drainage patterns across this high plains terrain on the Guadalupe and Lincoln County border. This region, characterized by its wide-open ranching land, is anchored by Gacho Hill and the seasonal water sources vital for livestock in the arid Southwest. While largely undeveloped, the map traces the local transit through Co Rd 3l, which cuts through the northern sections of the sheet. The landscape is segmented by the Public Land Survey System grid, shown here across multiple townships including t2n r18e and t1n r17e, illustrating how the territory was partitioned for grazing and resource management during the twentieth century.
