2020 Map of Schram Lake

About this map

The county line between Chaves Co and Roosevelt Co bisects this high plains landscape, where subtle topographic depressions create seasonal basins. Significant for local family historians, the Spillman Cem is situated along S Roosevelt Road 30, serving as a permanent landmark in a region defined by agricultural sections and long-distance county roads. The drainage of Boone Draw trends across the northern sections, while the southern reaches contain the ephemeral waters of Schram Lake and Woods Lake. This survey illustrates the rigid grid of the Public Land Survey System, with roads like S Roosevelt Road AK and Claunch Rd following section lines through the eastern New Mexico cattle and farming country.
