2023 Map of Velarde
USGS Topo · Published 2023About this map
The Rio Grande carves a deep valley through this corner of New Mexico, shaping the agricultural and religious life of communities like Velarde and Dixon. The map reveals a high concentration of spiritual and community landmarks, particularly clustered around Dixon, where the El Santuario Cem, Anthonys Catholic Cem, and Saint Dixon Presbyterian Cem reflect a diverse local heritage. The landscape is defined by traditional water management systems, including the Llano Ditch, La Plaza Ditch, and Canova Ditch, which continue to divert water from the river to sustain local fields.
