About this map

Sevilleta Grant dominates this 1952 topographic study, showcasing a vast stretch of arid terrain in New Mexico's Socorro County. The landscape is defined by the dramatic ascent of the Sierra Ladrones in the southwest, while the eastern edge is marked by the course of the Rio Puerco. This area represents a critical corridor for historical transportation, with the route of El Camino Real following the valley floor alongside the Pan American Highway.
