About this map

Baca Location No 2 and the high plateaus of Liberty Mesa dominate this New Mexican landscape, where the high desert is carved by Dickie Canyon and Palarito Canyon. The map reveals a complex water management system essential to the region's ranching and development, featuring the Conchas Canal and several lateral branches including the Bell Lateral and Roberts Lateral. Along the southern corridor, the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific RR runs parallel to the highway, passing the small settlement at Hargis. Near the outskirts of the growing regional center, cultural markers like the Tucumcari Memorial Park (Cem), a Drive-in Theater, and the Tucumcari Metropolitan Park appear alongside the natural landmark of Blue Hole. Further west, the remote landscape is dotted with ranching features like the Leslie Windmill and Middle Pasture Tank.
