USGS Topo · Published 1916About this map
Isolated cattle ranches and high desert peaks define the Trans-Pecos landscape of West Texas during this late nineteenth-century survey. The town of Alpine serves as the primary hub, situated where the Galveston Harrisburg and San Antonio railroad cuts through the mountains. This rail corridor was essential for the region's ranching economy, connecting remote outposts like Toronto and Paisano to wider markets.
