1954 Map of South Garcia SE

About this map

Laguna Indian Reservation land dominates this 1950s landscape, where the high relief of Black Mesa and Hidden Mountain breaks the desert terrain. The infrastructure of the era is defined by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which follows the natural corridor of the Arroyo Garcia as it heads toward the Rio Puerco basin. This survey provides a precise record of tribal and county boundaries, marking the intersection of the Isleta Indian Reservation and the line between Bernalillo and Valencia counties. Evidence of ancient habitation is preserved in several clusters of Indian Ruins, while the presence of a Pipe Line and Levee system illustrates the mid-century industrial development and water management necessary for this arid environment near Spring (Salt).
