About this map

Carlsbad Caverns National Park defines the western landscape of this 1945 survey, featuring iconic subterranean landmarks such as Bat Cave, Chimney Cave, and the official Cavern Entrance. Outside the park boundaries, the settlement of White City sits as a gateway along the road toward the Black River. The eastern half of the map reveals a ranching economy centered around water sources, with family-named operations like W W Smith & Sons Ranch and Sims Ranch dotting the arid terrain.
