2017 Map of Neafus Ranch

About this map

Neafus Ranch sits within a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes and a network of ephemeral watercourses near the boundary between San Miguel Co and Guadalupe Co. The terrain is characterized by the prominent Cañon Bonita, which cuts through the central portion of the quadrangle. Hydrological patterns are dominated by Cuervo Creek and its tributary, Little Cuervo Cr, while La Manga Cr enters from the northeast. The presence of Difrises Arroyo in the south underscores the arid character of this high-desert environment. Human infrastructure is limited to rural ranching operations and the unpaved corridor of Co Rd Ifa, reflecting a sparsely populated region dedicated to large-scale land use in the early twenty-first century.
