2017 Map of Hayden
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Hayden serves as the central point of reference in this sparsely settled corner of Northeast New Mexico, where the landscape is defined by its water management and grazing potential. The high plains terrain is dotted with several prominent water bodies, including Morris Lake, Shields Lake, and the larger Lowry Lake. A sophisticated system of private water storage is evident in the series of numbered basins named for a local landowner, such as the Claude Hutcherson Number One Reservoir and Claude Hutcherson Number Five Reservoir along the drainage of Monia Cr. This network of reservoirs and springs, including Antelope Spring, reveals the critical role of water infrastructure in sustaining life and industry in the arid ranchlands of the Union County and Harding County border region.
