About this map

Large Spanish land grants define the geography of the Middle Rio Grande Valley, where the Tome Grant, Belen Grant, and Casa Colorada Grant converge. The landscape is a study in water management and transportation history, featuring the intricate network of the Sabinal Ditch and the Old Jarales Riverside Drain alongside the Rio Grande. This complex irrigation system supported small agricultural outposts and rail stops like Madrone and Bodega situated along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line.
