1971 Map of Mesa Redonda NW

About this map

Millet Swale and Hatch Draw define the drainage patterns across this high-desert landscape in Navajo County. This 1971 field-checked survey reveals a sparsely populated terrain where water management and ranching infrastructure were the primary marks of human activity. Functional features like the Corral and The Canal contrast with archaeological evidence marked simply as Ruins in the northern reaches of the quadrangle. Cattle-rearing and land-use history is documented through the presence of named water sources such as Guys Well and North Gate Well, which served as essential hubs in an arid environment. The map provides a clear record of the network of Jeep Trails and unimproved roads that connected these remote points, stretching from Concho Flat to the southern edge near Mexican Lake.
