1970 Map of Pandale

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Pecos River carves a deep path through the canyonlands of Val Verde County, where the settlement of Pandale serves as a remote anchor for the surrounding ranching landscape. This 1970 field-checked survey reveals a territory defined by intricate drainage systems, including the long winding course of Howard Draw and the confluence of the Devils River in the northeast. The geography is marked by legacy livestock operations such as Bunger Ranch, Mills Ranch, and Arledge Ranch, reflecting a century of land use in a region where water sources and topographic relief dictated the placement of every homestead. A single Drill Hole near Will Davis Canyon hints at the sparse industrial or mineral exploration occurring alongside traditional pastoral life. Researchers will find a preserved network of canyons, from Slick Rock Canyon to Tardy Canyon, showing the area's transition into the late twentieth century.
