About this map

Holman serves as the primary center of settlement in this northern New Mexico landscape, situated where the Mora River flows along the eastern edge of the quadrangle. The area is defined by a dense concentration of religious and community burial grounds, including the Holman Presbyterian Cemetery, Agua Negra Cemetery, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary Cemetery, reflecting the deep-seated cultural and family roots of the valley.

Away from the river valley, the terrain rises into significant landmarks such as Holman Hill and Angostura Ridge. The geography is carved by numerous drainages, from Rio Pueblo in the northwest to Agua Fria Creek, illustrating a complex network of canyons like Vigil Canyon and Raton Canyon. Industry is represented by a Limestone Quarry located west of the main settlement, while small outposts like Walker Flats suggest the dispersed nature of habitation across the high country.
