1979 Map of Pueblo Nuevo

About this map

The Rio Bravo Del Norte Rio Grande carves through this desert landscape along the border between Presidio County and Chihuahua, Mexico. Compiled in the late 1970s, this survey documents a network of arid canyons and seasonal watercourses, including Arroyo Palo Blanco and Arroyo Santana, that define the local drainage patterns. Small rural outposts such as Pueblo Nuevo and La Oficina are situated among the higher elevations, while a Jeep Trail provides the primary transit through the rugged terrain. Local aviation and infrastructure are represented by the Hot Springs Airport and a nearby Drill Hole. Genealogists may find interest in the scattered Cementerio and Cem sites that mark the presence of family settlements like La Rata and La Macolla along the river's winding path.
