1896 Map of San Carlos

USGS Topo · Published 1914

About this map

The Tierra Vieja Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Presidio Co., rising sharply above the Rio Grande during the final years of the nineteenth century. The mapping captures a frontier environment defined by isolated ranching outposts and vital water sources. Prominent peaks like Gettysburg Peak and Capote Peak serve as landmarks in an area where life centered on the scattered springs and tanks necessary for survival.
