1963 Map of Elk-Silver

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation and Lincoln National Forest land meet in this Otero County landscape, characterized by high-elevation canyons and critical water sources. The settlement at Elk-Silver serves as a focal point along the floor of Elk Canyon, where the Solon Dam and a nearby Gravel Pit indicate localized infrastructure in an otherwise undeveloped area. The terrain is deeply incised by drainages such as Turkey Canyon and Indian Canyon, which provide natural corridors through the mountainous forest.
