2017 Map of Lisbon

About this map

Lisbon and Ulmoris anchor this high-desert landscape in southwest New Mexico, where modern infrastructure traces the path of earlier transit corridors through the Lordsburg Valley. The map highlights a stark contrast between the flat alluvial floor of the valley and the surrounding topographic relief, most notably the drainage patterns of Burro Cienaga which winds through the southern sections. This 2017 survey details the intersection of regional commerce and local geography, showing the primary transit line cutting diagonally across the quadrangle alongside established county routes like Co Rd B001. The terrain is further defined by prominent natural features such as Walker Canyon and Jones Canyon, which carve through the elevations along the Hidalgo and Grant County line. These features suggest a landscape where water and topography have long dictated the placement of settlements and transport networks.
