1936 Map of Arabela

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Capitan Mountains dominate the western half of this 1930s survey, where the Lincoln National Forest boundary protects the high peaks and canyons. In the shadow of Sunset Peak, the settlement of Arabela serves as a small hub for the surrounding ranching country. The landscape is defined by its water sources, from the Bluewater Spring to the scattered windmills like Millers Windmill and Winkler Middle Windmill, which were essential for sustaining livestock in this arid environment.
