1955 Map of Clint NE

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Backbone Hill and Horse Hill rise above a landscape defined by water management and boundary lines in this arid corner of El Paso County. Mapped by the Army Corps of Engineers and based on mid-1950s aerial photography, the terrain reveals a network of man-made features essential for livestock and passage. A series of watering holes, including Skunk Tank, Backbone Tank, and Lake Tank, are scattered across the desert floor, often situated near long stretches of fence and underground utilities. The presence of Sand Dunes and various wells like Rentleman Well and Red Well illustrates the reliance on specific points of water access. Significant infrastructure is marked by an aqueduct pipeline that traverses the northern reaches, indicating the large-scale movement of resources across this sparsely settled territory.
