About this map

Largo occupies the center of this high-plains landscape in De Baca County, illustrating the persistence of ranching life in eastern New Mexico during the early twenty-first century. The map depicts a sparse network of county roads, including CO Road 1-37 and CO Road 1-32, that connect isolated family holdings such as the McCabe Ranch and Smith Ranch.

Vital water infrastructure is a defining characteristic of this arid environment, evidenced by the scattered locations of the Shorty Windmill, West Gillum Windmill, Marlin Windmill, and the appropriately named New Windmill. These features, alongside the transit corridor of Us-60 E, highlight the essential elements of the regional economy, where livestock management and long-distance transportation intersect across the open terrain of T3N R21E and T3N R22E.
