About this map

Pedro Armendaris No 33 dominates this high-desert landscape in Sierra County, reflecting the enduring presence of historic land grants in New Mexico. The 1981 terrain is defined by its water management systems, essential for cattle ranching in an arid environment. Named points of interest such as Cain Ranch and water sources like Sevenmile Tank, Sunshine Well, and Homestead Tank provide critical reference points for local history and land use. The map also traces a network of informal transport, including a Jeep Trail, and notes industrial activity such as a Gravel Pit and a Drill Hole. This area, situated along the New Mexico Principal Meridian, illustrates the intersection of traditional ranching operations with modern surveying and resource extraction efforts.
