2013 Map of Romero Spring

About this map

Don Carlos Hills dominate the northern landscape of this Union County territory, where high plains topography meets the intermittent water sources of the high desert. The area is defined by its wide-ranging ranching and surveyor boundaries, including t24n r29e and t25n r30e. Named for a vital water source in this arid region, Romero Spring sits tucked against the western slopes of the upland terrain. Settlement is sparse, with the location of Gard marking a point of interest for local historians and genealogists tracing early twentieth-century activity in the northeastern corner of New Mexico. The map details the local road network connecting these remote points, notably Nm-120 and Co Highway C-015, illustrating the enduring spatial relationship between limited water and travel routes.
