1964 Map of Table Top Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Table Top Mountain rises as a prominent landmark in this desert landscape of Hidalgo County, New Mexico, where mid-century ranching and agriculture define the terrain. The presence of the Cotton Gin and Cotton City Landing Area at the western edge suggests the localized economic importance of cotton farming, supported by a network of scattered water sources including Hornig Well and Washburn Well. Large-scale landholdings like the Wamel Ranch and Quarter Circle W Ranch are mapped alongside irrigation infrastructure such as Section Two Tank and Foothill Tank. The eastern half of the quadrangle is dominated by the elevations of the Russel Hills and Threemile Hills, dissected by numerous drainage features like Rainbow Wash, Holtkamp Canyon, and Woodhaul Canyon. This survey captures the specialized infrastructure of the arid southwest, from livestock tanks to isolated aviation landing strips, just as modern irrigation and transport were solidifying the region's agricultural footprint.
