2017 Map of Tapia Ranch

About this map

Tapia Ranch sits at the heart of this high-plateau landscape in Guadalupe County, where the terrain is defined by dramatic escarpments and named canyons. The plateau surface is dominated by Argonne Mesa, while the northeastern corner of the map features the complex topography of Rincon de Rosendo Padilla. Water drainage patterns are clearly visible through the descent of Collins Canyon and Little Canyon toward the north. A network of rural and ranch roads, including Lost Saddle Loop, Mesa View Rd, and Muniz Rd, provides the primary infrastructure through the township and range sections. The map reveals how local land use and transportation are dictated by the steep drops from the mesa tops into the surrounding lowlands.
