1955 Map of Organ Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Organ Mountains dominate this mid-century landscape, characterized by dramatic vertical relief and high-altitude peaks such as Rabbit Ears, The Needles, and Organ Needle. This territory serves as a significant intersection of defense and natural topography, with large portions of the terrain encompassed by the Fort Bliss Military Reservation and the White Sands Proving Ground. Local infrastructure at this time was sparse, centered around the airstrip and Hayner Resort tucked below the high peaks.
