1954 Map of Mount Tyndall

About this map

Rosita and the nearby settlement of Querida anchor the southern portion of this mid-century topographic record, situated within the Rosita Hills. This landscape is defined by the high elevations of the Wet Mountains, where peaks like Mount Tyndall and Bear Peak overlook a network of deep gulches including Dead Mute Gulch and Boneyard Gulch. The map provides a detailed view of the rural habitation patterns of the 1950s, marked by numerous family-named properties such as Armstrong Ranch, Jones Ranch, and Tomsick Ranch.
