1954 Map of South Garcia

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Laguna Indian Reservation (Antonio Sedillo Grant) dominates the central landscape of this New Mexico quadrangle, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad snakes through the valleys between prominent plateaus. The topography is defined by the massive elevation of Black Mesa and the distinct formation of Mesa Redonda to the west. Near the railroad line, the small settlement at South Garcia and the Antonio Sedillo Grant Headquarters provide evidence of early territorial management and ranching operations. The confluence of the Rio San Jose and the Rio Puerco near the boundary with the Isleta Pueblo Indian Reservation Grant highlights the critical water sources in an otherwise arid environment. Historic access is marked by the Caroncito School Road and scattered water points like Dipping Vat Spring and El Ojo Escondido, reflecting the land's pastoral and community history.
