1972 Map of Patillas

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The Sierra de Cayey dominates this 1970s landscape, where steep topography transitions into the critical water management systems of southern Puerto Rico. The high-elevation Lago Carite in the northwest and Lago Patillas in the southeast are central features, connected by a network of steep-descending streams including the Rio Grande de Patillas and the ominous Quebrada de los Muertos. The town of Patillas sits at the base of the mountains, serving as a hub for the surrounding agricultural barrios.
