1979 Map of Carlsbad
USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
Carlsbad serves as the focal point of this late 1970s landscape, where the Pecos River and Lake Avalon support a network of irrigation and industry. To the south and east, settlements like Loving, Otis, and Malaga are linked by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, illustrating the transport corridors essential to the Pecos Valley. The western half of the map transition into the dramatic heights of the Guadalupe Mountains, containing the subterranean reaches of Carlsbad Caverns National Park and the protected lands of the Lincoln National Forest.
