About this map

Rio Felix winds eastward across this high desert landscape, cutting a natural path through an area defined by early 20th-century ranching and irrigation. The map reveals the critical role of water management in Chaves County, showing the extensive Hagerman Canal and various Ditch systems designed to sustain agricultural efforts in this arid region. The presence of Hurst Ranch and Hill Ranch speaks to the established grazing operations of the early 1950s, while the Lake Arthur Cemetery and multiple Windmill sites provide valuable reference points for genealogists tracing local history in the Chaves County area.
