USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
The Glorieta Pass serves as the focal point of this survey, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad and the highway navigate the steep terrain of the southern Sangre de Cristo Mountains. This area is defined by massive historic land holdings, including the Bishop John Lamy Grant and the Sebastian de Vargas Grant, which overlap a landscape of narrow canyons and high mesas. The map documents the Glorieta Battlefield Site, marking a significant location of the Civil War in the West.
