1940 Map of Bandanna Point

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Seven Rivers Hills and the rugged expanse of the Hess Hills define this southeastern New Mexico landscape, surveyed just before the United States entered World War II. This territory is characterized by a network of ephemeral watercourses and vital ranching outposts, including the Tatman Ranch in the north and the Mendoza Ranch near the center of the quadrangle. The dependence on sparse water sources is evident in the naming of features like Stinking Draw, Tule Well, and the Tin Henry Well, which sustained the local livestock economy.
