2020 Map of Tejon

About this map

Tejon and Carnero sit within a landscape defined by the convergence of several township boundaries near the border of Torrance and Guadalupe counties. This high-desert terrain is marked by the path of Highway 60 285, which serves as the primary artery through the region's ranching and range lands. The map illustrates a transition in New Mexico's rural infrastructure, where established routes like Horace Rd and Co Rd C028 connect isolated points of interest across the vast township divisions of t5n r15e, t4n r15e, and t3n r16e. For those tracking the evolution of land use in this part of the state, the map provides a clear view of how surveyors partitioned the territory into the Public Land Survey System grids that still govern local geography today.
