2010 Map of Pintada

About this map

Pintada sits at the southern edge of this Guadalupe County landscape, positioned where the terrain meets the winding course of the Pintada Arroyo. The area is defined by its ranching heritage and the sharp geographic relief of the Cañon de Baca in the north. This 2010 survey records the connectivity provided by County Rd 4 and the more remote County Rd 4EA as they traverse the high plains between small outposts. Genealogy and local history researchers will find the Old Pintada Cemetery clearly marked near the settlement of Pintada, serving as a primary point of interest for tracing the families who settled this high-desert region. Further north, the presence of York Ranch highlights the ongoing legacy of cattle ranching in a territory shaped by dry arroyos and canyons.
