1954 Map of Mount Washington

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Isleta Pueblo lands and the Sandia Military Reservation meet in this mid-century survey of the high desert terrain east of Albuquerque. The landscape is defined by the steep escarpments of Mount Washington and Sol se Mete Peak, within the boundaries of the Cibola National Forest. This era shows a transition in land use, marked by an Observation Cabin and the Marzano Lookout Tower (Aband) perched along the ridges. Below these heights, the intricate drainage system includes the deep incisions of Hell Canyon and the Arroyo del Coyote. The map provides specific locational detail for water sources critical to the region, such as Sol se Mete Spring and several designated Water Tanks, while delineating the complex overlapping of tribal, forest, and county boundaries between Bernalillo County and Valencia County.
