1961 Map of Flying H

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Flying H serves as a central landmark in this ranch-dominated landscape where the borders of Lincoln Co and Chaves Co meet. The 1961 field check reveals a high-desert environment where water management is the primary driver of human settlement. A network of family-named holdings like the Mc Knight Ranch and Slaughter Ranch are connected by unimproved dirt roads and light-duty paths, many leading toward essential water sources such as the Salt BM House Well and Sulphur Well.
