1953 Map of Bland

About this map

The Cochiti Mining District anchors this mid-century look at the southern Jemez Mountains, where the extractive history of the region is written into the deep canyons and volcanic mesas. The area around Bland and the nearby Pines reflects a landscape in transition, where mining operations like the Valle Grande Pumice Mine and the Washington Group were established alongside high-altitude homesteads. These isolated settlements, including the Evans-Griffin Place and Bruce Place, highlight the difficult nature of permanent habitation in these wooded heights during the early 20th century.
