1968 Map of Ima SW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Alamogordo Creek carves through this high-plains landscape where the borders of Guadalupe, Quay, and De Baca counties converge. This 1968 survey reveals a terrain defined by drainage patterns and elevation changes, rather than dense settlement. The presence of a Gaging Sta along Alamogordo Creek indicates the importance of monitoring water flow in this arid environment. Southward, the landscape is marked by several seasonal drainages, including Arroyo Colorado, Arroyo de Anil, and Arroyo Jackson. The map is particularly detailed regarding land divisions, with fine dashed lines indicating selected fence lines that reveal the sprawling ranching boundaries of the era. Benchmarks like WM 4961 serve as primary fixed points for surveyors navigating these mesas and arroyos.
