About this map

Longhorn Reservoir and the drainage of Armijo Draw define this high-desert landscape situated on the border of Santa Fe and Torrance counties. The road network reflects a history of large landholdings and subsequent rural development, with many routes bearing family names such as B Anaya Rd, Emma Anaya Ln, and Bogan Ranch RD. This modern survey illustrates the persistent ranching character of the region alongside newer rural subdivisions near the southern edge.

Water remains a critical element for local land use, highlighted by the presence of Sinking Spring and the reservoir. The southern portion of the map shows a concentrated grid of residential streets with equine-themed names like Shetland St, Pegasus, and Percheron St, contrasting with the wide-open ranch lands to the north. Surveyed boundaries including t10n r9e and t9n r10e provide the cadastral framework for these central New Mexico plains.
