1963 Map of Loma Parda

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Loma Parda Community occupies a striking position where the Mora River carves through the terrain, though by the mid-1960s, it is primarily identified as Loma Parda (Site). This map captures a significant landscape of Spanish land grants and western transit, featuring a large portion of the John Scolly Grant and the path of the Old Santa Fe Trail. The presence of a Stage Station and the Fort Union Corral near the trail's intersection with the Sapello River highlights the area's importance as a logistical hub for 19th-century travelers and military supplies. Irrigation infrastructure, such as the Upper Clyde Ditch and Upper Phoenix Ditch, illustrates the agricultural adaptations made to the arid New Mexico environment, while the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor shows the modernization of this ancient transit route.
