1943 Map of Shumla

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The high canyons and deep river bends of the West Texas borderlands define this wartime survey, where the Pecos River carves a winding path toward its confluence with the Rio Grande. This landscape is marked by the infrastructure of the Southern Pacific railroad, which skirts the rim of several prominent landforms including Shumla Bend and crosses deep drainages via a significant Viaduct. The settlement of Shumla serves as a central point for the local ranching economy, situated near the Jefferson Davis Memorial.
