1955 Map of North Franklin Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Franklin Mountains dominate this mid-century topographic record, defining a sharp vertical divide between the high desert peaks and the expanding infrastructure of El Paso. Much of the rugged western terrain is occupied by the Fort Bliss Military Reservation, specifically the Castner Range, where elevation points like North Franklin Mountain and Anthonys Nose tower over the landscape. These peaks are punctuated by vital water sources such as Mundys Spring and Cottonwood Spring, while Fusselman Canyon cuts through the rocky slopes to the south.
