1896 Map of Polvo

USGS Topo · Published 1909

About this map

The United States Mexico Boundary Line defines this 1895 topographic study, following the winding course of the Rio Grande as it separates Texas and Chihuahua. The landscape is dominated by a series of dramatic drainages cutting toward the river, including Bofecillos Canyon, Burros Canyon, and Rancherias Canyon. Human presence is sparse and largely tied to the river and the canyon mouths, where small settlements like Polvo and Mulato sit opposite one another across the international border.
