1920 Map of Marathon

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Marathon serves as the primary hub of this high desert region in Brewster County, situated along the Southern Pacific System tracks. The landscape is a complex arrangement of named mountain ranges and basins, where the Peña Blanca Mountains and Woods Hollow Mountains give way to expansive level areas like Dagger Flat and Lightning Flat. Water sources, critical for survival in this arid environment, are clearly marked at Peña Blanca Spring, Woods Hollow Tank, and Hackberry Tank.
