About this map

The Pecos River carves a deep path through this reach of Guadalupe County, New Mexico, where the high mesa landscape is defined by its intermittent drainage systems and sparse settlement. The small locality of Ojo Negro is situated near the confluence of Ojo Negro Creek and the river, marking a point of long-standing human presence in an arid environment. Further downstream, the river is managed by the Borica Dam, a feature that underscores the essential role of water control in this region's ranching and agricultural life. Evidence of the Borica settlement provides a focal point for those studying the rural history of eastern New Mexico. The area's connectivity relies on a grid of county roads, such as Falcon Rd and Azul Rd, which traverse the open range between the river canyon and the surrounding uplands.
