About this map

Gallinas River winds through this high desert landscape, serving as a vital corridor for settlement in San Miguel County. The village of La Liendre stands near a traditional river crossing, while further west, Concepcion and Aguilar appear as quiet outposts of the rural New Mexico ranching tradition. The topography is defined by massive landforms such as the Las Vegas Mesa and Mesa de los Carros, which tower over the deep drainages of Cañon del Agua and Cañon de las Mujeres Creek. This survey provides a look at the scattered infrastructure of the late 1980s, documenting a remote network of windmills and small family plots, including a Cem near Aguilar, that suggest long-standing generational ties to the land before the modernization of the ranching frontier.
