1964 Map of Gym Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Florida Mountains dominate this 1960s landscape, where mining interests and livestock ranching intersect in the high desert of Luna County. The terrain is marked by numerous mineral extraction sites, including the Atir Mine, Sun Tex Mine, and Mahoney Mine, which are accessed by a network of Jeep Trails winding through the canyons. Notable summits like Gym Peak and Baldy Peak tower over the surrounding draws, while the necessity of water in this arid environment is evident in the scattered locations of improvements like English Well, Victorio Well, and the Copper Kettle Well. Ranching infrastructure is further detailed by the inclusion of a Water Tank and several Blue Water Wells, illustrating how human activity adapted to the severe topography of Victorio Canyon and Lobo Draw before modern developments reached this corner of New Mexico.
