1951 Map of Red Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The arid ranchlands of Hudspeth County are documented here during a period of infrastructure expansion in the early 1950s. Water management is the primary narrative of this landscape, evidenced by the high density of named catchment features such as Adobe House Tank, Red Mill Tank, and Blanco Tank. These points of reliable water supported isolated ranching outposts like Scratch Ranch and Adobe House, which stood as solitary landmarks in a terrain defined by drainage systems like Buena Vista Draw and Antelope Gulch.
