About this map

The Devils River carves a deep, winding path through this portion of Val Verde County, defining the early ranching economy of the mid-20th century. This survey, compiled from 1941 aerial photography by the Air Corps, reveals a landscape organized by family-named holdings and precincts. The namesake Bakers Crossing serves as a focal point near the confluence of Hudson Canyon and the river, flanked by multiple operations including the S Baker Ranch, W Baker Ranch, and P Baker Ranch.
