1959 Map of Engle

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Elephant Butte Reservoir and the Rio Grande anchor this mid-century survey of the New Mexico landscape, dominated by the Fra Cristobal Range and the Caballo Mountains. The map documents a critical period of infrastructure and memory, capturing the Elephant Butte Dam and the historic site of Fort McRae, which sits near the shoreline. To the east, the Jornada del Muerto basin is traversed by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which connects the small settlements of Engle and Cutter.
