1955 Map of Bishop Cap

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Organ Mountains dominate the northern landscape of this mid-century survey, giving way to the sprawling southern expanse of the Fort Bliss Military Reservation. This rugged terrain is defined by its drainage patterns and prominent peaks, including Bishop Cap and Pyramid Peak, which serve as stark landmarks against the high desert floor. The presence of the Dona Ana Range Camp in the southeast corner reflects the region's mid-century military utility, while scattered evidence of earlier activity appears in the form of unnamed ruins and a prospect near the mountain slopes.
