USGS Topo · Published 1937

About this map

The Rio Grande Southern R. R. carves through the southern reaches of the La Plata Mountains, providing a vital link for the mining operations and ranching outposts that defined this region at the turn of the century. Settlements like Hesperus and Parrott are depicted as focal points of activity, while Menefee Ranch and Thompson Park indicate the agricultural life established in the lower valleys.
