1958 Map of Carlsbad
USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The Pecos River corridor defines the eastern industrial and agricultural character of this region, feeding into the Lake McMillan Reservoir and Lake Avalon as it flows south toward Carlsbad. To the east, the landscape supports economic activity such as the Potash Mine, while the western terrain is dominated by the high elevations of the Sacramento Mountains and the Lincoln National Forest (Sacramento Division). The transition from the arid Tularosa Valley to the dramatic heights of the Guadalupe Mountains illustrates the complex topography of the New Mexico-Texas borderlands.
