2020 Map of Seneca

About this map

Kiowa National Grassland dominates this high plains landscape of northeastern New Mexico, where the small settlement of Seneca sits near the southeastern corner of the quadrangle. The topography is defined by significant drainage systems and distinct landforms that rise above the plateau. The waters of Corrumpa Cr and Alamos Cr wind through the terrain, which is punctuated by named features such as Lookout Hill and the strikingly named The Pyramid. This modern survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details a network of county roads, including Atencio Rd and Corrumpa Rd, which cross various draws and canyons like Barrel Canyon and Road Canyon. The map reveals the intricate boundaries of public and private land typical of this cattle-ranching region, preserving the names of local draws like Pinco Draw and Rinker Draw that are essential for navigating this open country.
