1981 Map of Gallup
USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor anchors the southern edge of this McKinley County landscape, connecting the regional hub of Gallup with industrial and military sites like Gamerco and the expansive Fort Wingate Army Depot. North of the tracks, the terrain shifts into the Navajo Indian Reservation, a high-desert expanse of mesas and deep washes such as Tohatchi Wash and Coyote Wash. The map records a complex network of trading posts and post offices, including the Tohatchi Trading Post and Coyote Canyon (Brimhall PO), which served as vital community centers in this period.
