1966 Map of Ione

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Ione sits within a high-plains landscape defined by its vital water sources and the boundary between Harding and Union Counties. Mapped in the mid-1960s, this area of northeastern New Mexico reveals a reliance on isolated water points such as Big Well, South Hobart Well, and West Well to sustain life and livestock across the arid terrain. The drainage systems of Bob Creek and Entrania Creek carve subtle paths through the landscape, while the North Fork and main branch of Minneosa Creek provide critical topographic definition. The presence of named landmarks like Mitchil and Entrania Spring suggests a history of localized activity in a region primarily dedicated to ranching, where surveyor-noted fence lines segment the open country into distinct parcels.
