2023 Map of Mesa Redonda

About this map

Mesa Redonda dominates this central Quay County landscape, rising as a prominent plateau above a network of seasonal drainage systems. The terrain is deeply incised by Spikes Canyon and a series of watercourses including Spikes Creek, Apodaca Creek, and Rincon Creek that flow from the elevated landforms. The map provides a detailed view of the rural infrastructure in the early 2020s, defined by a rigid grid of local county roads such as Quay Rd 51 and Quay Road AO. This network facilitates movement through the open country south of the Canadian River valley, where drainage patterns like Paris Creek and Barranca Creek carve through the high plains. The survey illustrates the intersection of Township and Range lines T9N and T8N, showing how section lines and local roads align with the natural topography of the high mesas.
