1964 Map of Pasture Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Alamocita Creek carves a central path through this arid landscape, which in the mid-1960s was defined by isolated ranching outposts and a network of essential water sources. The map records several family-named locations such as the White House Ranch, McCord Place, and Box Bar Place, indicating the sparse but established settlement pattern of Catron County. The terrain is a complex system of drainage and relief, ranging from the prominent Bell Mountain in the northeast to the deeply incised Rock House Canyon. To the south, the boundary of the Cibola National Forest encompasses a series of steep drainages like Remuda Canyon and Red Canyon. This survey provides a precise record of the vital hydrologic infrastructure of the era, including naming individual points like Buds Windmill, Red Feather Well, and Alkali Tank.
