1979 Map of Phone Line Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Arid basin and range topography characterizes this 1970s survey along the El Paso Co Hudspeth Co border. The landscape is defined by its deep drainages, including Powwow Canyon and the eponymous Phone Line Canyon, which cut through the steep southern Mountains. Water management in this high-desert environment is represented by a network of catchments and tanks, such as Phone Line Tank, Sheep Tank, and Cactus Tank, which were essential for supporting ranching and local operations.
