USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
The Rincon Valley serves as a critical agricultural and transportation corridor in this 1959 survey, dominated by the winding course of the Rio Grande. The settlement of Rincon sits at a strategic junction where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad meets the valley floor, supported by a complex network of irrigation infrastructure including the Hatch Canal, Rincon Canal, and the Rincon Siphon. To the north, the terrain rises sharply into the Caballo Mountains, providing a stark contrast to the managed waterways of the basin.
