USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
The Grandfalls area in the late 1960s was defined by the intersection of high-desert oil exploration and a complex irrigation network. This survey captures a landscape where the Pecos River snakes along the southern border, feeding an intricate system of waterways such as the Van Carr Canal, Imperial Canal, and Imperial Ditch. These man-made features provided vital water to the arid terrain, supporting the community of Imperial near the prominent Imperial Reservoir.
