1979 Map of McCutchen Ranch

About this map

Rio Grande (also labeled Rio Bravo) meanders through this borderland quadrangle in Presidio Co, defining the international boundary between Chihuahua and Texas. The landscape is characterized by intermittent drainages like San Carlos Creek and Mc Comb Creek that cut through the desert terrain toward the river. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by the Mc Cutchen Ranch and the settlement at El Campo De La Ventana. This 1970s survey reflects a period of modern border management, with the international line established according to the Treaty of November 23, 1970. Significant water sources in this arid environment are noted at Widow Spring and an additional Spring to the north, which historically served as vital nodes for local ranching and travel between the river and the inland hills.
