1992 Map of Silver City

About this map

Silver City stands at the transition between the high desert and the southern reaches of the Gila National Forest in the early 1990s. The map captures the city's role as a regional hub, featuring the campus of Western New Mexico University and the Gila Regional Medical Center, alongside several schools like Silver High Sch and La Plata Middle Sch. The landscape is dominated by the Silver City Range and the winding path of the Continental Divide, which separates the high mountain peaks like McComas Peak and Stewart Peak from the growing residential developments.
