1895 Map of Chispa

About this map

The high desert corridor of Far West Texas is defined here by the transit routes between the Van Horn Mountains and the Wiley Mountains. Surveyed in the early 1890s, the landscape is dominated by the strategic intersection of early rail lines and essential water stops like Van Horns Wells. The Southern Pacific R. R. and the Galveston Harrisburg And San Antonio Div. cut across the arid terrain, creating small sidings and settlements such as Chispa, Arno, and Wendell.
