1892 Map of Mt. Taylor

USGS Topo · Published 1896

About this map

The volcanic and high-desert landscapes of northwestern New Mexico are meticulously documented in this late nineteenth-century survey. Dominated by the soaring profile of Mt Taylor and the expansive Lava Bed to the south, the map reveals a region defined by its geology and scarce water sources like Coal Spring and Willow Spring. The Atlantic and Pacific Railroad follows the valley of the San Jose River, serving a string of early settlements including Grants, McCartys, and the pueblo at Laguna.
