About this map

Olive (Site) sits at the heart of this dryland landscape in Chaves County, indicating a former settlement in the high plains of New Mexico. The area is defined by the broad Olive Basin and the winding course of Hernandez Draw, where the survival of ranching operations depends on a network of water management features. Isolated outposts such as Gainer Ranch and Van Eaton Ranch are connected by Olive Road and several Landing Strips, highlighting the vast distances of the ranching frontier during the mid-20th century.
