1967 Map of York Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

York Ranch sits at the edge of a stark volcanic landscape in western New Mexico, where the massive The Malpais lava flow dominates the northeastern corner of the map. This 1967 field-checked survey reveals a remote rangeland defined by essential water infrastructure, including Rock Tank Windmill, Four Corners Windmill, and Sand Windmill. The presence of a Landing Area near the ranch headquarters suggests the importance of aerial access in this isolated territory. Deeply etched drainage patterns are visible in Goat Canyon, while the rough textures of Lava fields contrast with the surrounding flats. Traces of human activity are sparse, represented by a single Corral and the primary north-south route of State Road 117, illustrating the survival strategies of high-desert ranching during the mid-twentieth century.
