2020 Map of Pintada

About this map

Pintada serves as the focal point of this Guadalupe County landscape, situated near the seasonal drainage of Pintada Arroyo. The settlement's history is anchored by the Old Pintada Cem to the east, providing a point of interest for genealogical research in this part of New Mexico. The terrain is defined by the significant depression of Cañon de Baca in the north, while a network of rural routes such as Milagro Rd and Pintada Rd cross the high plains. The transition between township boundaries t9n r17e and t8n r18e reflects the systematic land divisions of the region, where the road network, including Sunset Rd and Sunrise Rd, follows the natural contours and property lines of the ranching country.
