1968 Map of Porter

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Porter stands as the primary point of settlement in this 1960s landscape on the Quay County plains. The terrain is defined by the northward-winding course of Tuscocillo Canyon, which carves through the high plateau near the border of R. 34 E. R. 35 E.. This area reveals a sparse ranching and utility environment, where human activity is marked by a network of wells and a significant Pipeline crossing the northwestern corner. The infrastructure of the late 1960s is further evidenced by a prominent Radio Tower near the eastern boundary and several localized Gravel Pit sites, suggesting the ongoing maintenance of the local road system during this era of rural New Mexico history.
