About this map

Running Water Draw winds through the central portion of this landscape, carving a distinct drainage pattern across the high plains of Curry County. The topography is defined by the Public Land Survey System, which has dictated the grid-like development of the local transportation network. This layout is evident in the regular intervals of roads such as Curry Road 25, Curry Road 24, and Curry Road 23.

The map reveals the agricultural organization of the eastern New Mexico panhandle, where sections are clearly delineated by routes like Curry Road T and Curry Rd N. This structured environment reflects the enduring legacy of the township and range system, showing how the land was partitioned for ranching and farming. Aside from the primary draw, the terrain is relatively uniform, punctuated by subtle elevation changes that define the drainage basins of the Llano Estacado.
