About this map

The Sacramento Mountains and Capitan Mountains dominate the western half of this landscape, rising above the extensive Lava flows and Malpais near Carrizozo. This 1955 compilation, revised in the early 1960s, documents the strategic and natural geography of southeastern New Mexico, from the high Sierra Blanca Peak down to the Pecos River valley. The urban center of Roswell is shown alongside Walker Air Force Base, while the U S Marine Hospital Reservation and Fort Stanton represent the region's long-standing institutional presence.
