1967 Map of Veteado Mountain

About this map

Veteado Mountain and Techado Mountain dominate this high-desert landscape in the late 1960s, where the Continental Divide winds through the terrain of the Catron-Valencia county line. This area is defined by a remote ranching economy, marked by isolated outposts like McNab Ranch, Black Ranch, and Green Ranch. The drainage patterns are critical to this arid environment, with seasonal waterways such as Deep Water Draw and Horse Camp Canyon carving the surface. Local infrastructure centers on water access for livestock, evidenced by Tingle Well and Dutch Lake. Historically, these sites represent the deep-rooted cattle and sheep ranching traditions of western New Mexico, where life depended on dispersed springs and catchments like Spring Ten.
