1966 Map of Hayden

About this map

The high plains of the Harding and Union County line are defined here by a network of ranching homesteads and vital water sources in the mid-1960s. Hayden serves as the primary settlement hub, marked by its Cem, Rodeo Ground, and the nearby waters of Lowry Lake. The landscape is a study in arid-land survival, where nearly every section is anchored by a named well, including the School Section Well, Dickson Well, and East Bates Well. Large livestock operations like the Heimann Ranch, Jacobs Ranch, and Hutcherson Ranch dominate the terrain, utilizing natural features like Antelope Spring Lake, Horse Lake, and Morris Lake for grazing support. The southern portion of the sheet is drained by Monia Creek, which is flanked by the Garden Well and East Garden Well, illustrating the critical role of groundwater in this northeastern New Mexico ranching district.
