About this map

The agricultural plains of Clovis and the surrounding Curry County countryside reveal a landscape defined by industrial-scale farming and public recreation. Ned Houk Park stands out as a significant regional landmark, featuring organized routes such as Ned Houk Park 3 and Ned Houk Park 4 that navigate the varied terrain of the High Plains. The map highlights the local dairy economy through established operations like North Pointe Dairy, Southern Draw Dairy, and Palla Dairy.

Surface water is a defining feature in this semi-arid environment, specifically the winding path of the Running Water Draw. Small-scale settlement patterns are evident at Claud, which serves as a junction point for the grid of section roads including State Route 288 and State Route 209. This survey provides a precise view of the rural infrastructure and land use in eastern New Mexico during the early 21st century.
