2013 Map of Monument South

About this map

The town of Monument sits at the northern edge of this high plains landscape, defined by the industrial footprint of the Monument-Jal Oil Field. This 2013 survey reveals a highly organized grid of rural routes and energy infrastructure, where the natural terrain is dominated by the broad, low depression of Monument Draw. The map details a complex network of local transport, including Monument Hwy and family-named landmarks like the Record Ranch. Local transit is further documented by specific thoroughfares such as Tuffy Copper Rd and Tuffy Cooper Rd, which serve the expansive oil fields and ranching properties. The systematic division of the land into townships like t20s r36e and t21s r36e underscores the geometric precision of the New Mexico interior during the early 21st century.
