1966 Map of Colorado Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Alamogordo Reservoir dominates the western edge of this mid-1960s landscape, where the Pecos River valley transitions into the arid mesas of eastern New Mexico. The map records the Normal Pool Elevation 4275 along a shoreline shaped by the influx of Alamogordo Creek and the drainage of Arroyo Potrillo. This is a sparsely settled ranching territory defined by the winding path of Colorado Canyon and the administrative boundary between Guadalupe and De Baca counties.
