About this map

The McDonald Observatory anchors the high ridges of the Davis Mountains, overlooking a landscape defined by dramatic basin-and-range geology in Far West Texas. The Southern Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal line across the desert floor, connecting small sidings and outposts like Lobo, Chispa, and Valentine. This era of the mid-1980s shows the region’s long-standing reliance on transcontinental rail and scattered ranching, with the Plata Verde Mines and various quarries indicating the localized mineral extraction that shaped the early economy.
