About this map

Aleman Ranch sits at the northern edge of this high desert landscape, characterized by an extensive system of drainages and critical water infrastructure. In an environment defined by aridity, the placement of numerous catchments and wells reflects the essential needs of ranching in the early 1980s. Significant seasonal waterways like Aleman Draw, Jornada Draw, and Lyons Draw converge across the terrain, leading toward the prominent elevation of Prisor Hill. Named water sources such as Santa Fe East Well, Badger Tank, and Jody Tank are scattered throughout, providing a clear picture of how water management was mapped to sustain livestock operations. The eastern boundary is notably defined by the New Mexico Principal Meridian, serving as a foundational survey line for the entire region.
