2010 Map of Pedernal

About this map

Pedernal and Dunmoor appear as central points of reference in this high-desert landscape, captured during the first decade of the 21st century. The geography is defined by its rural transit network, most notably the path of Highway 60, which bisects the quadrangle as a primary east-west corridor. A system of numbered county roads, including County Rd-C089 and County Rd-C088, provides the necessary infrastructure for ranching or sparse residential pockets. The layout suggests a classic New Mexico ranching environment where vast distances are managed through a sparse but essential grid of roads like County Rd-C057 and County Rd-C037. This survey by the U.S. Geological Survey offers a clear record of land use and property boundaries in Torrance County before more recent developments.
