1896 Map of San Carlos

About this map

The Rio Grande carves a winding international boundary through this 1895 survey of Presidio County, where the high peaks of the Sierra Vieja Mountains dominate the eastern horizon. The landscape is defined by its scarce water sources, evidenced by the scattered network of named points like Mexican Spring, Nixon Spring, and Newman Spring. These vital outlets support a series of isolated outposts such as Bright's Ranch and Capote Ranch, which represent the early ranching economy of the Trans-Pecos region.
