About this map

Bryantine Cem serves as a small but significant historical marker in this ranching landscape where San Miguel, Harding, and Quay counties meet. The high plains terrain is defined by a sophisticated network of water management, illustrated by numerous family-named landmarks such as the John Pool Windmill, Oscar Pool Windmill, and Bailey Windmill. These features, along with the Hampton Ranch and McCuistion Camp, indicate the long-standing cattle-raising economy of this territory.

Water sources like Luis Spring and Ramirez Spring feed intermittent drainages including Carros Cr and the Northeast Fork Carros Cr. Local transit is facilitated by rural routes such as Trigg Rd and Walker Rd, which navigate around the Gravel Hills and through the Romero Draw. The mapping of the Sinkhole Trap Windmill at the southern edge suggests the specific geologic challenges faced by residents in this part of New Mexico.
