1953 Map of Santo Domingo Pueblo SW

About this map

The Santo Domingo Pueblo Grant dominates this 1950s landscape, illustrating a complex system of water management and ancestral land boundaries. Along the eastern edge, the Rio Grande is flanked by an intricate network of irrigation and drainage infrastructure, including the Santo Domingo Ditch, the Main Canal, and the Santo Domingo Levee. This hydraulic system, featuring several siphons and the San Felipe Drain, demonstrates the critical reliance on river management for agriculture in the high desert. To the west, the terrain rises into the Mesa, dissected by deep arroyos such as Cañon Santo Domingo and Cañon Borrego. This survey captures the intersection of three historic land grants, marking the West Boundary Pueblo De Cochiti Grant and the San Felipe Pueblo Grant as they converge in this corner of Sandoval County.
