1965 Map of Beckwith Arm

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Falcon Reservoir dominates this landscape, its waters filling the canyons and arroyos along the United States and Mexico border. The map focuses on the Beckwith Arm of the reservoir, a jagged inlet where several recreational facilities such as a Marina and Trailer Camp and a Boat Ramp were established to serve travelers and sportsmen. The jagged shoreline, with its numerous points and coves, was mapped shortly after the reservoir was created, showing areas subject to controlled inundation at a normal pool elevation of 296 feet.
