1918 Map of Reagan Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1946

About this map

The Rio Grande carves a winding path through this desolate stretch of Brewster County, defining the international boundary between the United States and Mexico. Surveyed in 1917, the map captures a landscape defined by extreme relief and isolated outposts of industry and habitation. Horn's Ranch sits on a small flat above the river, while further north, the presence of the Wax Factory suggests the early 20th-century harvesting of candelilla wax from native desert shrubs.
