1959 Map of Gallup
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
The high plateau and canyon country of the Southwest center on Gallup in this 1950s survey, illustrating the critical transportation corridor between the Zuni Mountains and the Defiance Plateau. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and Route 66 parallel the Puerco River through a landscape defined by significant cultural and administrative boundaries. Large tracts of land are designated as the Navajo Indian Reservation and the Zuni Pueblo, while the Fort Wingate Military Reservation and Cibola National Forest manage the highlands.
