1965 Map of Taylor Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Taylor Springs sits near the western edge of this 1965 survey, positioned along the banks of the Canadian River in Colfax County. This high-plains landscape is defined by the intersection of historic transit and natural watercourses, most notably where segments of the Santa Fe Trail cut across the drainage of Chico Creek. The topography reveals a mix of plateau land and deeply carved arroyos, including Arroyo Jaritas and the Arroyo leading toward Middle Lake. Evidence of early cattle ranching and land management is visible through the intricate network of fence lines and localized water sources like the Water Tank and several natural Springs. The eastern boundary of the Beaubien and Miranda grant marks the western portion of the sheet, reflecting the complex land-grant history of Northern New Mexico. Small-scale infrastructure such as a Gaging Sta on the river and a lone Cem suggest the sparse, rural nature of the settlement at this time.
