1955 Map of Davies Tank

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

The Organ Mountains dominate the western edge of this mid-century survey, casting long shadows over a landscape defined by desert hydrology and military expansion. This territory, spanning the border of Doña Ana and Otero counties, is primarily occupied by the White Sands Missile Range and the Fort Bliss Military Reservation. The desert floor is marked by a network of essential water sources such as Davies Tank, Globe Well, and Goodin Well, which supported ranching interests before the land was consolidated for military use.
