2020 Map of Goat Canyon

About this map

Sanchez Cem and La Morada Cem sit as quiet landmarks in this high-plains landscape of Union County, reflecting the deep-rooted Hispanic heritage of northeastern New Mexico. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems including Pinabetes Cr and Middle Trabajo Cr, which have carved significant features such as Chavez Canyon and Goat Canyon. This cattle-ranching country is interlaced with unpaved routes like Barney Rd and several county roads, illustrating a remote settlement pattern where life follows the natural contours of the arroyos. The map provides a look at the land's traditional division, showing the intersection of several townships such as t24n r32e and t23n r32e near Jarosito Canyon.
