USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
The mining settlements of Hillsboro and Kingston anchor this mid-1930s landscape in Sierra County, New Mexico. Situated along Percha Creek, these towns supported a network of hard-rock operations including the Gray Eagle Mine and Silvertail Mine, alongside prospecting sites like Sawpit. The topographic detail reveals a transitioning economy where ranching began to define the open land between the peaks, evidenced by family-named holdings such as the Mackey Ranch, E Nunn Ranch, and JP Nunn Ranch.
