1930 Map of Hyder

USGS Topo · Published 1930

About this map

Hyder and the surrounding Palomas Plain are defined here by the transit and water needs of the desert in the late 1920s. The Southern Pacific railroad cuts a straight line through the lower half of the territory, providing a lifeline to the small settlement of Hyder and the nearby Morris Ranch. In this arid environment, water sources like Hall Well were vital landmarks for those traveling between the mountains and the lowlands.
