About this map

Laguna de los Terreros serves as a prominent water feature in this portion of Guadalupe County, where the high desert terrain is etched by seasonal watercourses like Monias Draw and the Cañada de Brehedo. The landscape reflects a ranching and pastoral character, evidenced by the infrastructure of the Borica Dam and a network of rural routes such as Buena Vida Rd and Molino Rd.

Surveyed at a 1:24,000 scale, the map delineates the intersection of several townships including t6n r20e and t5n r20e. The naming conventions for local roads like Lizard Rd and Sacaton Rd provide a sense of the local environmental context and historical land use patterns in this region of New Mexico, where reliable water sources and topographical landmarks dictated the layout of contemporary boundaries and transport paths.
