1963 Map of Jacinto Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Jacinto Mesa and its surrounding high desert landscape dominate this 1963 survey of the New Mexico interior, where the border of San Miguel and Torrance counties meets. The territory is characterized by a sophisticated network of water management features essential for ranching in this arid environment, including Jacinto Tank, Refugio Tank, and Nicholas Tank. The settlement pattern is defined by isolated outposts such as Agua Verde Ranch, Trujillo Ranch, and Maes Ranch, which are situated near the seasonal drainage of Agua Verde Draw and Encinosa Draw. Significant landforms like Cañon del Jacinto and Laguna del Sauzno provide distinct geographical markers across the plains, while the presence of a Pipeline and several industrial features like Franks Pit and Victors Pit suggest the mid-century infrastructure supporting the local economy.
