About this map

The Pedro Armendaris Grant No 33 dominates the northwest corner of this high-desert landscape, where land use in the late 1940s was defined by isolated livestock operations and critical water management. Centered on the boundary of Sierra and Socorro counties, the map documents the infrastructure of remote ranching life, including the Cain Ranch Headquarters, Sanchez Ranch, and Sowell Ranch Headquarters.
