The high plains of eastern New Mexico define this Roosevelt County landscape, where the small settlements of Krider and Cantara are positioned along the primary east-west transport corridor. The terrain is characterized by the subtle drainage of Alamosa Cr in the northwest, cutting through the arid cattle country. A rigid grid of rural infrastructure, including Franklin Rd, Hill Ranch Rd, and N Roosevelt Road A Ve, provides access across the open rangeland between the townships. This 2020 update reflects the enduring agricultural and ranching patterns of the region, showcasing how the modern road network follows the historic section lines and township boundaries of the Llano Estacado.
