2017 Map of Pino Mountain

About this map

Pino Mountain stands as the central topographic feature in this arid stretch of Torrance County, rising above a landscape defined by ranch roads and historical markers. The map details a remote section of New Mexico where movement is dictated by a grid of routes such as Negra Rd and Pardo Rd, alongside the evocatively named Rawhide trail. For researchers of local genealogy, the presence of Pinos Wells Cem in the east and Cedarvale Cem to the south provides critical links to the families who established themselves in the township ranges of t3n r12e and t2n r12e. The sparse placement of these features reflects the expansive nature of the high desert environment and the cattle-driven economy that has long shaped the region's development and infrastructure.
