1963 Map of Sunshine

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Canon Del Rio Grande carves a dramatic path through the high desert of Taos County, defining the western edge of the Sunshine Valley. This early 1960s survey documents a sparse ranching and agricultural landscape where life is tied closely to the water of the Rio Grande and its tributaries. The small settlement of Sunshine serves as a focal point in the valley, near the Sunshine Valley Cem, while the community of Cerro sits at the base of the prominent Guadalupe Mountain in the southeast.
