1948 Map of San Diego Mountain
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
Agricultural research and desert ranching define this landscape north of Las Cruces in the late 1940s. The map highlights the extensive footprint of the Jornada Experimental Range and the New Mexico A & M College Animal Husbandry Ranch, where numerous water sources like Open Diamond Tank No 1, Thorn Well, and Red Lake supported livestock and ecological studies. Along the southwest corner, the Rio Grande flows past Radium Springs, paralleled by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line.
