1962 Map of Acme

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts a diagonal path across this Chaves County landscape, following the course of Bob Crosby Draw through the settlement of Acme. To the west, the Pecos River and Bitter Lake define a fertile corridor protected within the Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge. The map provides a clear look at mid-century land use in the Pecos Valley, where livestock operations like Kitchen Ranch, Smith Ranch, and Dumas Ranch are interspersed with industrial Sandpits. Notable local landmarks include the Bob Crosby Bridge crossing the river and the isolated Frazier Cem, offering valuable data points for those tracing regional family history or the evolution of ranching infrastructure in southeastern New Mexico.
