2023 Map of Tripod Mountain

About this map

Tripod Mountain and Chavez Mountain dominate this northeastern New Mexico landscape, characterized by high-elevation mesas and volcanic landforms. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of Carrizo Creek and Cedar Creek, which carve through the high plains of Union County. The 2023 survey illustrates a sparsely populated ranching environment where the movement of people and livestock is facilitated by a network of county roads including Sofia Rd, Cedar Creek Rd, and Co Rd A115. A prominent geological feature known as The Hogback sits in the eastern portion of the quadrangle, marking a distinct ridge line common to the region's sedimentary and volcanic history. The map's township and range markers, such as t26n r31e, provide essential data for modern land management and historical property research in this open range country.
