Pino Mtn dominates the high desert landscape of central Torrance County, rising above a network of isolated rural roads that define the region's ranching and transit history. This 2020 survey documents a vast, open terrain organized by section lines and historical land divisions. Local history and genealogy researchers will find the locations of Pinos Wells Cem in the eastern portion of the quadrangle and Cedarvale Cem along the southern border near Co Rd C009. These small burial grounds serve as quiet markers of the families who settled this arid corner of New Mexico. The map details the simple road network connecting these points, including Negra Rd, Pardo Rd, and the evocative Rawhide trail, reflecting the enduring character of the High Plains.
