1953 Map of Horcado Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

San Ildefonso Pueblo Grant and the Pojoaque Pueblo Grant dominate this mid-century landscape north of Santa Fe, where historical land grant boundaries intersect complex drainage systems. The survey detail highlights the intricate network of watercourses including Arroyo Calabasa, Arroyo Ancho, and the Rio Tesuque, illustrating the importance of water management in this arid high-desert environment. Small settlements such as Horcado Ranch and Cuyamungue appear alongside evidence of human infrastructure and movement across the terrain. An interesting industrial relic, the Old Pipe Line Railroad Grade, runs through the western section near Caja Mesa, providing a specific point of interest for those tracking former rail alignments and utility corridors. Numerous jeep trails and paths weave through the Jacona Grant, reflecting the rural and traditional land use patterns of the early 1950s.
