USGS Topo · Published 1928About this map
Sierra Blanca serves as a critical junction in West Texas, where the iron rails of the late nineteenth century converge amidst a high-desert landscape of prominent peaks and deep ravines. Surveyed in 1891, the map captures the strategic importance of this corridor as the Galveston Harrisburg and San Antonio Railroad meets the Texas and Pacific Railroad. These lines parallel the southern edge of the Sierra Diablo and the northern flank of the Quitman Mountains.
