1982 Map of Horse Mountain

About this map

Animas Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Hidalgo County, defined by the stark verticality of the northern range. The map illustrates a drainage system focused around Cowboy Creek and Tullous Creek, which cut through the complex terrain below Horse Mountain. This provisional survey shows the area during the late 1970s and early 1980s, emphasizing natural landmarks and topographical elevation over human development. The name Fireplace appears on the eastern flats, providing a specific reference point for local history researchers or surveyors working in this specific section of the Chihuahuan Desert. Small landmarks such as Cedar Hill and the feature simply labeled Bluff serve as clear orientation points within the township and range grid system.
