1965 Map of Horn Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The San Juan River corridor near Bloomfield serves as the central artery for this mid-century New Mexico landscape, where complex irrigation systems like the Citizens Ditch and Hammond Main Canal dictate the patterns of human settlement. The map reveals a transition from the agricultural and residential outskirts of town, evidenced by Riverside Ch and the Mena Alta Jr High Sch, into an industrial hinterland defined by extensive energy extraction. Numerous Gas Wells and Oil Wells pepper the mesas and canyons, particularly around Horn Canyon and Gallegos Canyon. Significant engineering works are visible, including the Kutz Siphon and a Pumping Sta, which facilitate water movement across this arid terrain for both municipal and industrial use.
