1962 Map of Acme
USGS Topo · Published 1982About this map
The Pecos River floodplain and the sprawling wetlands of the Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge define the western edge of this Chaves County landscape. In the early 1960s, the rural community of Acme served as a small node along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which cuts diagonally across the high plains. The map reveals a land divided between industrial extraction and traditional ranching, evidenced by numerous sandpits and scattered family operations like Kitchen Ranch, Smith Ranch, and Dallas Ranch.
