2017 Map of Saint Vrain

About this map

Saint Vrain and Grier anchor this high plains landscape in Curry County, where the rigid geometry of the Public Land Survey System is visible through a dense grid of rural corridors. The map depicts a territory defined by its transition between townships t3n r33e and t2n r34e, where the vast majority of the terrain is organized for agricultural use. This modern survey shows a sophisticated network of named roads, including Curry Road 15, Curry Road 10, and Curry Road 8, which trace the section lines typical of the Llano Estacado region. While much of the area appears as open upland, the presence of Creek Y and scattered depressions indicate the subtle drainage patterns and playa lakes characteristic of the New Mexico eastern plains. This document provides a clear view of how rural infrastructure has evolved to support the small communities and farmsteads established here over a century ago.
