1952 Map of San Anacia

About this map

San Acacia sits at the vital confluence of the Rio Salado and the Rio Grande, serving as a focal point for water management and transit in Socorro County. The map details the intricate irrigation network of the Alamillo Ditch, San Acacia Canal, and a series of drainage canals that supported agricultural life along the riverbanks. To the west, the arid foothills of the Sierra Ladrones and the high ridges of Loma Blanca dominate the terrain, separated from the valley by expansive tracts like the Sevilleta Grant.
