Good Quay County hunting map research starts with one question: whose ground is it? That's true for a woodlot near Logan and for a field edge outside Tucumcari. The Quay County, NM parcel map does that for free, with no login.
This guide goes from the Quay County parcel map to a polite permission request for ground near Tucumcari, with notes on public land and regulations.
How to use the Quay County hunting map
The Quay County ArcGIS parcel map is the free tool for Quay County hunting map scouting: imagery displays cover and water, parcel lines show who owns each block near Forrest. Big ownership blocks near Tucumcari mean fewer letters to write; small splits mean more neighbors to ask.
Step one: the free Quay County viewer
The county's own public map is the Quay County ArcGIS parcel map, built on an Esri ArcGIS web map, and it opens without an account for parcels in Logan and the rest of the county. Most people locate their Quay County tract fastest by searching an address in San Jon, then clicking the outline. Bookmark our Quay County page too; it tracks the official New Mexico link if it moves and lists the maps around Logan.
