1985 Map of San Lorenzo Spring

About this map

Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge dominates the northeastern corner of this 1985 survey, marking a protected landscape where high desert terrain meets the complex drainage systems of Socorro County. The map provides a detailed record of the arid hydrologic network, centered on the reliable waters of San Lorenzo Spring. A series of Check Dams are noted throughout the arroyos, indicating twentieth-century land management and erosion control efforts in this environment.
