1967 Map of Mesa SW

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Boswell Ranch and other established ranching operations define this arid corner of Chaves County during the late 1960s. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of dry washes and drainage patterns, most notably the Arroyo del Macho and its tributaries such as Fifteenmile Arroyo and Middle Fork Fivemile Draw. These ephemeral waterways carved deep through the terrain, with names like Burts Canyon and Fourmile Draw indicating the vast distances between landmarks in this livestock-driven economy.
