1958 Map of Roswell

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Walker Air Force Base sits east of the city of Roswell, marking a significant military presence in the Chaves County plains during the mid-1950s. The landscape transitions sharply from the high peaks of the Sacramento Mountains and Sierra Blanca, reaching over 12,000 feet, down to the drainage of the Pecos River. This map captures the region when small settlements like Lincoln and White Oaks maintained their historical identities alongside the growth of the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation.
